The pathogenesis of Salmonella Typhimurium depends on the bacterium's ability to survive and replicate within host cells. formation maintenance a unique membrane-bound compartment, termed Salmonella-containing vacuole (SCV), is essential for S. pathogenesis. SCV-bound induces filamentous tubules that radiate outwards from SCV, Salmonella-induced filaments (SIFs). SIF concomitant with onset replication epithelial biogenesis, intracellular positioning SCV cell requires translocation bacterial...
Numerous cellular factors belonging to the DNA repair machineries, including RAD18, RAD52, XPB and XPD, have been described counteract human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) replication. Recently, Uracil glycosylase 2 (UNG2), a major determinant of uracil base excision pathway, was shown undergo rapid proteasome-dependent degradation following HIV-1 infection. However, specific role intracellular UNG2 depletion during course infection is not clearly understood. Our study shows for first...
Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) is a foodborne enteric pathogen and major cause of gastroenteritis in humans. It known that molecules derived from the human fecal microbiota downregulate S. virulence gene expression induce starvation-like response. In this study, was cultured minimal media to mimic starvation conditions such as experienced by intestinal tract, pathogen's vitro vivo measured. displayed reduced ability invade epithelial cells manner at least partially...

The redox balance in a variety of Gram-negative bacteria was explored using sensitive GFP (roGFP2), J. van der Heijden et al. doi:10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2015.11.029 [1]. This data article provides Supporting material to further investigate the relationship between Salmonella typhimurium survival and oxidative stress. first set presented this article, shows percentage surviving after exposure hydrogen peroxide. second concentration peroxide that produced by S. Typhimurium different growth...
