Borna Disease Virus: Mögliche Ursache neurologischer und psychiatrischer Störungen des Menschen

Die Borna'sche Krankheit ist schon lange bei Tieren, v. a. bei Pferden und Schafen, als eine sporadisch auftretende, progressiv verlaufende Encephalomyelitis bekannt und galt ausschließlich als tierpathogen. In Studien konnten Wissenschaftler BD-virusspezifische Antikörper auch in Liquores von Menschen mit psychiatrisch relevantem Krankheitsbild nachweisen, die die Erkenntnis brachten, daß der Mensch mit dem BD-Virus infizierbar ist.

2). , 2006a). , 2003). In the predivisional cell, PleC is localized to the swarmer pole and dephosphorylates DivK. , 2004). B. BROWN ET AL. , 2004). , 2004). The difference in the level of DivKBP in each of the daughter cells contributes to the distinct physiologies of the new stalked and swarmer cells. Localization of DivJ and PleC also impact the phosphorylation state and activity of PleD, a response regulator that contains a diguanylate cyclase domain. 4; Fig. 4). The presence of PleC in the new swarmer cell prevents the phosphorylation of PleD and premature ejection of the flagellum.

As the cell undergoes the swarmer to stalked cell differentiation, dimers of PleDBP are localized to the flagellar pole leading to the production of cyclic-di-GMP. The increase in c-di-GMP levels promotes flagellum ejection, holdfast formation, and stalk formation. Flagellum assembly in the early predivisional cell is achieved by a reduction in c-di-GMP levels through degradation into linear diguanylate (pGpG) by TipF and occurs at the pole marked by the presence of TipN. After flagellum biosynthesis, TipN is briefly delocalized.

4. Function of the Stalk A number of possible functions have been attributed to the stalk of C. crescentus, including adhesion and nutrient acquisition. The localization of the adhesive holdfast to the distal tip of the stalk is often taken as an indication that the stalk may play a role in adhesion. Several lines of evidence indicate that there is an adhesion-independent function for the stalk. First, stalk and holdfast synthesis are not coupled. , 2004; Levi and Jenal, 2006). Similarly, holdfast synthesis does not depend on stalk synthesis (Janakiraman and Brun, 1999).
