The pattern-recognition molecule Nod1 is localized at the plasma membrane at sites of bacterial interaction
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The pattern-recognition molecule Nod1 is a critical sensor for bacterial derived diaminopimelic acid-containing peptidoglycan fragments which induces innate immune responses in epithelial cells. Here we report the subcellular localization of this protein in human epithelial cells. Nod1 is localized in the cytosol and at the plasma membrane in human cells. This membrane association is dependent on the integrity of the protein, on its signalling capacity and on an intact actin cytoskeleton. Signalling-inactive mutants of Nod1 or disruption of the actin cytoskeleton interferes with this localization pattern and impacts on downstream NF-kappaB activation. Moreover, the invasive bacterium Shigella flexneri was used as a model for physiological activation of Nod1. Imaging revealed that Nod1 is recruited to the site of bacterial entry, where it colocalizes with NEMO. Our data provide evidence that membrane association is linked to Nod1 function and, in view of recent findings on Nod2, that this may be a common feature of NLR family members.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
