Name: Differential proteome analysis of C. elegans after infection with Staphylococcus aureus
Description: The success of invertebrates throughout evolution is an excellent illustration of the efficiency of their defence strategies. An example of such a successful invertebrate is Caenorhabditis elegans. Over the years, this free-living ground nematode has proven to be a very useful model in the study of host-pathogen interactions. In this paper a proteomics approach was adopted to investigate the worm’s response at four time-points after infection with the gram-positive bacterium Staphylococcus aureus. This study resulted in the identification of 130 spots corresponding to 108 differentially expressed proteins.
