Cellular microbiologist at the MRC-CMBI - Imperial College London. We study host-pathogen interactions, in particular we love Salmonella. Views are my own.

We are delighted to announce that Teresa Thurston is joining the Dunn School as an Associate Professor! @ThurstonLab uses a multidisciplinary approach to study bacterial virulence factors and host immunity. Find out more: path.ox.ac.uk/news-article/t…




Today we said goodbye to @KeringKev, our global hubs fellow from the Kariuki lab in Kenya. Kelvin worked with @Ines_DdO on Salmonella-macrophage interactions - thank you for visiting our lab Kelvin and we wish you the best for the final leg of your PhD.





Excellent programme for the (6th?) UK Cellular Microbiology Meeting in Sheffield. Still time to register and attend: ukcellmicro.org







Bacteria can counter noncanonical lipid ubiquitination with a #ubiquitin esterase! Fantastic collaboration with @ThurstonLab and @CMBI_Szczesna, with @r_lacoursiere driving our side of the project using some amazing tools built by the Geurink lab.



Bacterial esterases reverse LPS ubiquitylation to block immunity. @ThurstonLab @jnpruneda ID mechanism to evade cell-autonomous immunity. Effector removes ubiquitin earmarks deposited by host E3 ligase RNF213 to prevent bacterial recognition & destruction cell.com/cell-host-micr…
