Analyses of the evolutionary distribution of Salmonella translocated effectors.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The type III secretion system encoded by Salmonella pathogenicity island 2 (SPI2) translocates Salmonella translocated effectors (STE) into host cells. STE are encoded by genes outside of SPI2. The distribution of STE loci within the salmonellae was investigated. In contrast to the SPI2 locus that is conserved within Salmonella enterica, STE loci show a variable distribution. In addition to other virulence determinants, the possession of various sets of STE loci may contribute to the different host ranges and pathogenic potentials of S. enterica serovars.

Functional Dissection of SseF, a Membrane-Integral Effector Protein of Intracellular Salmonella enterica
During intracellular life, the bacterial pathogen Salmonella enterica translocates a complex cocktail of effector proteins by means of the SPI2-encoded type III secretions system. The effectors jointly modify the endosomal system and vesicular transport in host cells. SseF and SseG are two effectors encoded by genes within Salmonella Pathogenicity Island 2 and both effector associate with endos...

The type III secretion system (TTSS) encoded by Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium pathogenicity island 2 (SPI2) is employed by Salmonella enterica for interaction with host cells during the intracellular phase of pathogenesis. This TTSS secretes a set of SPI2-encoded proteins in vitro and translocates Salmonella serovar Typhimurium translocated effectors (STE) that are encoded by genes ou...

The Salmonella pathogenicity island 2 (SPI2) type III secretion system (TTSS) promotes Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium virulence for mice and increased survival and replication within eukaryotic cells. After phagocytosis, Salmonella serovar Typhimurium assembles the SPI2 TTSS to translocate over a dozen effector proteins across the phagosome membrane. SpiC has been previously shown to b...

Salmonella enterica are facultative intracellular bacterial pathogens that proliferate within host cells in a membrane-bounded compartment, the Salmonella-containing vacuole (SCV). Intracellular replication of Salmonella is mediated by bacterial effectors translocated on to the cytoplasmic face of the SCV membrane by a type III secretion system. Some of these effectors manipulate the host endoc...
متن کاملIdentification of Novel Host Interactors of Effectors Secreted by Salmonella and Citrobacter
Many pathogenic bacteria of the family Enterobacteriaceae use type III secretion systems to inject virulence proteins, termed "effectors," into the host cell cytosol. Although host-cellular activities of several effectors have been demonstrated, the function and host-targeted pathways of most of the effectors identified to date are largely undetermined. To gain insight into host proteins target...
