It is phagocytosed by immune cells, such as monocytes and macrophages. The precise mechanisms that initiate bacterial uptake have not yet been elucidated. Participation of C3, CR3, class A scavenger receptors and mannose receptor in bacterial uptake have been already reported. However, contribution of an additional, as-yet-unidentified receptor for F. tularensis internalization has been suggested.\nWe show here that cell-surface expressed nucleolin is a receptor for Francisella tularensis Live Vaccine Strain (LVS) and promotes LVS binding and infection of human monocyte-like THP-1 cells. The HB-19 pseudopeptide that binds specifically carboxy-terminal RGG domain of nucleolin inhibits LVS binding and infection of monocyte-like THP-1 cells. In a pull-down assay, elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu), a GTP-binding protein involved in protein translation, usually found in cytoplasm, was recovered among LVS bacterial membrane proteins bound on RGG domain of nucleolin. A specific polyclonal murine antibody was raised against recombinant LVS EF-Tu. By fluorescence and electron microscopy experiments, we found that a fraction of EF-Tu could be detected at the bacterial surface. Anti-EF-Tu antibodies reduced LVS binding to monocyte-like THP-1 cells and impaired infection, even in absence of complement and complement receptors. Interaction between EF-Tu and nucleolin was illustrated by two different pull-down assays using recombinant EF-Tu proteins and either RGG domain of nucleolin or cell solubilized nucleolin.\nAltogether, our results demonstrate that the interaction between surface nucleolin and its bacterial ligand EF-Tu plays an important role in Francisella tularensis adhesion and entry process and may therefore facilitate invasion of host tissues. Since phagosomal escape and intra-cytosolic multiplication of LVS in infected monocytes are very similar to those of human pathogenic F. tularensis ssp tularensis, the mechanism of entry into monocyte-like THP-1 cells, involving interaction between EF-Tu and nucleolin, might be similar in the two subspecies. Thus, the use of either nucleolin-specific pseudopeptide HB-19 or recombinant EF-Tu could provide attractive therapeutic approaches for modulating F. tularensis infection.\n\n","tracks":[{"project":"bionlp-ost-19-BB-kb-dev","denotations":[{"id":"T1","span":{"begin":0,"end":173},"obj":"Title"},{"id":"T5","span":{"begin":47,"end":69},"obj":"Microorganism"},{"id":"T6","span":{"begin":73,"end":98},"obj":"Habitat"},{"id":"T2","span":{"begin":174,"end":689},"obj":"Paragraph"},{"id":"T7","span":{"begin":174,"end":196},"obj":"Microorganism"},{"id":"T8","span":{"begin":202,"end":230},"obj":"Phenotype"},{"id":"T10","span":{"begin":262,"end":287},"obj":"Phenotype"},{"id":"T9","span":{"begin":262,"end":267},"obj":"Habitat"},{"id":"T11","span":{"begin":311,"end":323},"obj":"Habitat"},{"id":"T12","span":{"begin":333,"end":342},"obj":"Habitat"},{"id":"T13","span":{"begin":347,"end":358},"obj":"Habitat"},{"id":"T14","span":{"begin":640,"end":653},"obj":"Microorganism"},{"id":"T3","span":{"begin":690,"end":1808},"obj":"Paragraph"},{"id":"T15","span":{"begin":708,"end":712},"obj":"Habitat"},{"id":"T16","span":{"begin":759,"end":801},"obj":"Microorganism"},{"id":"T17","span":{"begin":803,"end":806},"obj":"Microorganism"},{"id":"T18","span":{"begin":821,"end":824},"obj":"Microorganism"},{"id":"T19","span":{"begin":825,"end":832},"obj":"Phenotype"},{"id":"T21","span":{"begin":850,"end":881},"obj":"Habitat"},{"id":"T20","span":{"begin":850,"end":855},"obj":"Habitat"},{"id":"T22","span":{"begin":856,"end":881},"obj":"Habitat"},{"id":"T23","span":{"begin":981,"end":984},"obj":"Microorganism"},{"id":"T24","span":{"begin":985,"end":992},"obj":"Phenotype"},{"id":"T25","span":{"begin":1010,"end":1035},"obj":"Habitat"},{"id":"T26","span":{"begin":1192,"end":1195},"obj":"Microorganism"},{"id":"T27","span":{"begin":1280,"end":1286},"obj":"Habitat"},{"id":"T28","span":{"begin":1327,"end":1330},"obj":"Microorganism"},{"id":"T29","span":{"begin":1499,"end":1502},"obj":"Microorganism"},{"id":"T30","span":{"begin":1503,"end":1510},"obj":"Phenotype"},{"id":"T31","span":{"begin":1514,"end":1539},"obj":"Habitat"},{"id":"T32","span":{"begin":1781,"end":1785},"obj":"Habitat"},{"id":"T4","span":{"begin":1809,"end":2536},"obj":"Paragraph"},{"id":"T33","span":{"begin":1950,"end":1972},"obj":"Microorganism"},{"id":"T34","span":{"begin":1973,"end":1981},"obj":"Phenotype"},{"id":"T35","span":{"begin":2029,"end":2053},"obj":"Phenotype"},{"id":"T36","span":{"begin":2041,"end":2053},"obj":"Habitat"},{"id":"T37","span":{"begin":2117,"end":2120},"obj":"Microorganism"},{"id":"T38","span":{"begin":2124,"end":2142},"obj":"Habitat"},{"id":"T40","span":{"begin":2172,"end":2188},"obj":"Phenotype"},{"id":"T39","span":{"begin":2172,"end":2177},"obj":"Habitat"},{"id":"T41","span":{"begin":2189,"end":2217},"obj":"Microorganism"},{"id":"T42","span":{"begin":2247,"end":2272},"obj":"Habitat"},{"id":"T43","span":{"begin":2512,"end":2525},"obj":"Microorganism"},{"id":"E1","span":{"begin":47,"end":69},"obj":"Lives_In"},{"id":"E4","span":{"begin":174,"end":196},"obj":"Lives_In"},{"id":"E2","span":{"begin":174,"end":196},"obj":"Exhibits"},{"id":"E3","span":{"begin":174,"end":196},"obj":"Exhibits"},{"id":"E6","span":{"begin":821,"end":824},"obj":"Lives_In"},{"id":"E7","span":{"begin":821,"end":824},"obj":"Lives_In"},{"id":"E5","span":{"begin":821,"end":824},"obj":"Exhibits"},{"id":"E9","span":{"begin":981,"end":984},"obj":"Lives_In"},{"id":"E8","span":{"begin":981,"end":984},"obj":"Exhibits"},{"id":"E10","span":{"begin":1499,"end":1502},"obj":"Exhibits"},{"id":"E13","span":{"begin":1950,"end":1972},"obj":"Lives_In"},{"id":"E11","span":{"begin":1950,"end":1972},"obj":"Exhibits"},{"id":"E12","span":{"begin":1950,"end":1972},"obj":"Exhibits"},{"id":"E14","span":{"begin":2117,"end":2120},"obj":"Lives_In"},{"id":"E15","span":{"begin":2117,"end":2120},"obj":"Lives_In"},{"id":"E17","span":{"begin":2189,"end":2217},"obj":"Lives_In"},{"id":"E18","span":{"begin":2189,"end":2217},"obj":"Lives_In"},{"id":"E16","span":{"begin":2189,"end":2217},"obj":"Exhibits"}],"relations":[{"id":"R1","pred":"Microorganism","subj":"E1","obj":"T5"},{"id":"R2","pred":"Location","subj":"E1","obj":"T6"},{"id":"R3","pred":"Microorganism","subj":"E4","obj":"T7"},{"id":"R4","pred":"Location","subj":"E4","obj":"T9"},{"id":"R5","pred":"Microorganism","subj":"E2","obj":"T7"},{"id":"R6","pred":"Property","subj":"E2","obj":"T10"},{"id":"R7","pred":"Microorganism","subj":"E3","obj":"T7"},{"id":"R8","pred":"Property","subj":"E3","obj":"T8"},{"id":"R9","pred":"Microorganism","subj":"E6","obj":"T18"},{"id":"R10","pred":"Location","subj":"E6","obj":"T21"},{"id":"R11","pred":"Microorganism","subj":"E7","obj":"T18"},{"id":"R12","pred":"Location","subj":"E7","obj":"T20"},{"id":"R13","pred":"Microorganism","subj":"E5","obj":"T18"},{"id":"R14","pred":"Property","subj":"E5","obj":"T19"},{"id":"R15","pred":"Microorganism","subj":"E9","obj":"T23"},{"id":"R16","pred":"Location","subj":"E9","obj":"T25"},{"id":"R17","pred":"Microorganism","subj":"E8","obj":"T23"},{"id":"R18","pred":"Property","subj":"E8","obj":"T24"},{"id":"R19","pred":"Microorganism","subj":"E10","obj":"T29"},{"id":"R20","
