Role of rpoS in the regulation of Salmonella plasmid virulence (spv) genes.
Salmonella plasmid virulence (spv) genes are organized into two transcriptional units: one formed by the spvR gene and the other by the spvA, spvB, spvC and spvD genes. Transcription of both units is activated by SpvR, a regulatory protein of the LysR family. The effect of RpoS, a stationary phase-associated sigma factor, on the expression of spv genes was studied using lacZ transcriptional fus...
متن کاملThe Role of the spv Genes in Salmonella Pathogenesis
Salmonella strains cause three main types of diseases in people: gastroenteritis, enteric (typhoid) fever, and non-typhoid extra-intestinal disease with bacteremia. Genetic analysis indicates that each clinical syndrome requires distinct sets of virulence genes, and Salmonella isolates differ in their constellation of virulence traits. The spv locus is strongly associated with strains that caus...
متن کاملRole of mga in growth phase regulation of virulence genes of the group A streptococcus.
To determine whether growth phase affects the expression of mga and other virulence-associated genes in the group A streptococcus (GAS), total RNA was isolated from the serotype M6 GAS strain JRS4 at different phases of growth and transcript levels were quantitated by hybridization with radiolabeled DNA probes. Expression of mga (which encodes a multiple gene regulator) and the Mga-regulated ge...
متن کاملRole of the AtClC genes in regulation of root elongation in Arabidopsis
The protein family of anion channel (ClC) constitute a family of transmembrane trnsporters that either function as anion channel or as H+/anion exchanger. The expression of three genes of AtClCa, AtClCb and AtClCd in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana were silenced by a T-DNA insertion . When the pH of the medium was slightly acidic the length of the primary root of plants with a disrupted At...
متن کاملCharacterization of translation termination mutations in the spv operon of the Salmonella virulence plasmid pSDL2.
The spv region of the Salmonella virulence plasmids consists of five genes located on an 8-kb fragment previously shown to be essential for virulence in mice. Four structural genes, spvABCD, form an operon that is transcriptionally activated by the spvR gene product in the stationary phase of growth. The role of the individual spv genes in the virulence phenotype was tested by isolating transla...
