Dissecting virulence: Systematic and functional analyses of a pathogenicity island

Deng, Wanyin, Puente, José L., Gruenheid, Samantha, Li, Yuling, Vallance, Bruce A., Vázquez, Alejandra, ...

Bacterial pathogenicity islands (PAI) often encode both effector molecules responsible for disease and secretion systems that deliver these effectors to host cells. Human enterohemorrhagic...

Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium ompS1 and ompS2 Mutants Are Attenuated for Virulence in Mice

Rodríguez-Morales, Olivia, Fernández-Mora, Marcos, Hernández-Lucas, Ismael, Vázquez, Alejandra, Puente, José Luis, Calva, Edmundo

Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium mutants with mutations in the ompS1 and ompS2 genes, which code for quiescent porins, were nevertheless highly attenuated for virulence in a mouse model,...
