Study of the role of the CDC48 chaperone protein in plant immunity
2018
The chaperone protein CDC48 (Cell division cycle 48) is a major regulator of the quality control of proteins and is involved in various cellular processes in animals and yeast. In contrast, the role of CDC48 in plants is poorly known. In the present work, we investigated the function of CDC48 in plant immunity thanks to the cryptogein/tobacco biological model, cryptogein being produced by the oomycete phytophthora cryptogea.Three strategies were carried out. First, the dynamic of accumulation CDC48 together with intracellular events inherent to the immune response were analyzed in both wild-type and CDC48 overexpressing tobacco cells (CDC48-TAP line). Second, a list if CDC48 partners was es…

Gènes fongiques liés au calcium impliqués dans la mycorhize à arbuscules
2012
Fluctuations in intracellular (Ca2+) calcium levels generate signaling events and regulate different cellular processes. Whilst the implication of Ca2+ in plant cell responses during arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) interactions is well documented, nothing is known about the regulation or role of this secondary meesenger in the fungal symbiont. The molecular basis of fungal calcium homeostasis in the AM symbiosis was analyzed by investigating the expression of Ca2+-related fungal genes. In a first study, G. mosseae genes putatively encoding a MAP3k-like protein kinase (Gm2) and a P-type ATPase (Gm152) were investigated. Both Ca2+-related genes were up-regulated by A. sinicum root exudates, sugges…
Study of the biochemical composition and physico-chemistry of a protein-based food model of Parkia biglobosa
2022
In West Africa, the seed of the cowpea (Parkia biglobosa) is used in traditional pharmacopoeia and especially in human food as a condiment. This legume is very rich in proteins and lipids and remains a poorly exploited source of protein. Our thesis focuses on the valorization of Néré seeds for the development of new protein-rich products of plant origin as an alternative to the use of soybean as a basic ingredient. The objectives were : (i)biochemical and physicochemical characterization of protein isolates from Néré seed flour according to the extraction process, (ii) selection of proteolytic lactic acid bacteria capable of fermenting Néré juice, reducing anti-nutritional factors in order …
Study of the ability of apolipoprotein C1 to inhibit cholesteryl ester transfer protein activity in normolipidemic and hyperlipidemic patients with c…
2013
High cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) activity was found to accelerate the progression of atherosclerosis. Apolipoprotein C1 (apoC1) is a potent physiological inhibitor of CETP. ApoC1 operates as CETP inhibitor through its ability to modify the electrostatic charge at the lipoprotein surface. The inhibitory potential of apoC1 has never been studied in high risk patients or in patients with hyperlipidemia. Our aim was to address the functionality of apoC1 as CETP inhibitor in normo- and hyperlipidemic patients with documented coronary artery disease and in patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes in comparison with normolipidemic-normoglycemic healthy subjects. We confirmed that apo…
Effect of Oral Physiology Parameters on In-Mouth Aroma Compound Release Using Lipoprotein Matrices: An In Vitro Approach
2019
Temporal aroma compound release during eating is a function of the physicochemical properties of the food matrix, aroma compounds, and oral physiology of individuals. However, the influence of each parameter on the release of each aroma component should be clarified. Two flavored lipoprotein matrices varying in composition were chewed in a chewing simulator that reproduced most of the physiological functions of the mouth. Aroma compound releases (butanoic acid, 2-heptanone, ethyl butyrate, 3-octanone, and 2-nonanone) were followed in real time by direct connection of the device to APCI-MS (atmospheric pressure chemical ionization mass spectrometry). Each oral parameter was controlled and de…
Physico-chimie des lipopolysaccharides et réponse inflammatoire : rôle des lipoprotéines
2014
LPS is a potent bacterial pro-inflammatory agent, consisting of hydrophilic, polysaccharide part and of a lipid A which is considered like active moiety. Nevertheless, the O chain of LPS influences their aggregation in aqueous media. Therefore, our goal has been to determine the role of O chain on the LPS biological and physiopathological effects. Our work was organized according to three main axes, and led to the following findings :- development of a new LPS assay by LC-MS/MS. The combination of this new technique with LAL test allowed us to calculate an inactivation ratio which reflects the ability of host organism to inactivate LPS, especially through their transfer to HDL by PLTP. The …
Comprehension and food analysis of a fermented mixture of animal proteins and vegetable proteins : influence on the physico-chemistry and the accepta…
2017
Many problems have been identified following the attempts to incorporate vegetal proteins in our food. In particular, off-flavor, taste or texture have been highlighted as real barriers to the acceptability of plant products by consumers. The consumer himself is also an important determinant regarding the term "acceptability." So, in order to develop a new fermented product based on pea, two issues were studied: the product and the consumer. To understand the physico-chemical properties and the acceptability of pea protein-based fermented products, several factors have been investigated in successive stages such as culture, positive health and environmental claims, lactic acid bacteria stra…
Understanding of the physiological and genetic mechanisms involved in the reducing activity of Lactococcus lactis
2015
Lactic acid bacteria, particularly Lactococcus lactis are used in dairy industry. These bacteria are known to have a reducing activity, indicating their ability to lower the redox potential (Eh) of a medium. L. lactis MG1363 genome encodes several proteins with a CXXC motif, potentially linked with a redox activity. To understand the role of proteins rich in cysteine located at the surface of L. lactis, two approaches were used, one bioinformatics and biochemical another. For bioinformatic approach, interest was focused on two proteins of unknown function and CX2CX10CX2C motif: Llmg_0524 and Llmg_0526. Their corresponding genes form an operon temporarily induces in early growth phase. In th…
Relationships between sodium mobility, in-mouth salt and aroma release, and flavour perception : application to model cheeses
2012
The aim of this work is to understand the effects of changes in the composition of model cheeses on mobility, release and perception of flavor molecules (salt, aroma compounds). Six flavoured model cheeses were formulated (3 lipid/protein (L/P) ratios and 2 salt contents). The microstructure and the rheological properties of the model cheeses were characterized respectively by confocal microscopy and by uniaxial compression test. The mobility of sodium ions was analyzed by 23Na NMR. The kinetics of sodium release was followed in water and then in saliva during consumption of the model cheeses. The retronasal release of aroma compounds was followed by nose-space APCI-MS, simultaneously with …
