The SPI-3 pathogenicity island of Salmonella enterica.
Pathogenicity islands are chromosomal clusters of pathogen-specific virulence genes often found at tRNA loci. We have determined the molecular genetic structure of SPI-3, a 17-kb pathogenicity island located at the selC tRNA locus of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium. The G+C content of SPI-3 (47.5%) differs from that of the Salmonella genome (52%), consistent with the notion that these s...
متن کاملCrosstalk between Virulence Loci: Regulation of Salmonella enterica Pathogenicity Island 1 (SPI-1) by Products of the std Fimbrial Operon
Invasion of intestinal epithelial cells is a critical step in Salmonella infection and requires the expression of genes located in Salmonella pathogenicity island 1 (SPI-1). A key factor for SPI-1 expression is DNA adenine (Dam) methylation, which activates synthesis of the SPI-1 transcriptional activator HilD. Dam-dependent regulation of hilD is postranscriptional (and therefore indirect), ind...
متن کاملThe Salmonella pathogenicity island (SPI)-2 and SPI-1 type III secretion systems allow Salmonella serovar typhimurium to trigger colitis via MyD88-dependent and MyD88-independent mechanisms.
Salmonella typhimurium can colonize the gut, invade intestinal tissues, and cause enterocolitis. In vitro studies suggest different mechanisms leading to mucosal inflammation, including 1) direct modulation of proinflammatory signaling by bacterial type III effector proteins and 2) disruption or penetration of the intestinal epithelium so that penetrating bacteria or bacterial products can trig...
متن کاملStatus of Vi gene, its expression and Salmonella Pathogenicity Island (SPI-7) in Salmonella Typhi in India.
Salmonella enterica serotype Typhi (S. Typhi) is a causative organism of typhoid fever. A number of Salmonella serovars express a capsular polysaccharide antigen known as Vi, the biosynthetic and export proteins of which are encoded within the viaB locus of Salmonella Pathogenicity Island -7 (SPI-7). SPI-7 is inserted between two partially duplicated copies of tRNA -pheU gene. We have investiga...
متن کاملSigma32-mediated negative regulation of Salmonella pathogenicity island 1 expression.
Salmonella pathogenicity island 1 (SPI1) enables infecting salmonellae to invade the intestinal epithelium and induce a proinflammatory response and macrophage cell death. SPI1 expression is controlled by a complex cascade with several transcriptional regulators within the island and global regulators outside it. Previously, we reported that DnaK-depleted salmonellae could neither invade epithe...
