Composition, Acquisition, and Distribution of the Vi Exopolysaccharide-Encoding Salmonella enterica Pathogenicity Island SPI-7

Pickard, Derek, Wain, John, Baker, Stephen, Line, Alexandra, Chohan, Sonia, Fookes, Maria, ...

Vi capsular polysaccharide production is encoded by the viaB locus, which has a limited distribution in Salmonella enterica serovars. In S. enterica serovar Typhi, viaB is encoded on a 134-kb...

Analysis of the Hypervariable Region of the Salmonella enterica Genome Associated with tRNAleuX†

Bishop, Anne L., Baker, Stephen, Jenks, Sara, Fookes, Maria, Gaora, Peadar Ó, Pickard, Derek, ...

The divergence of Salmonella enterica and Escherichia coli is estimated to have occurred approximately 140 million years ago. Despite this evolutionary distance, the genomes of these two species...

Identification of Core and Variable Components of the Salmonella enterica Subspecies I Genome by Microarray†

Anjum, Muna F., Marooney, Chris, Fookes, Maria, Baker, Stephen, Dougan, Gordon, Ivens, Al, ...

We have performed microarray hybridization studies on 40 clinical isolates from 12 common serovars within Salmonella enterica subspecies I to identify the conserved chromosomal gene pool. We were...

Prophage Sequences Defining Hot Spots of Genome Variation in Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium Can Be Used To Discriminate between Field Isolates▿

Cooke, Fiona J., Wain, John, Fookes, Maria, Ivens, Alasdair, Thomson, Nicholas, Brown, Derek J., ...

Sixty-one Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium isolates of animal and human origin, matched by phage type, antimicrobial resistance pattern, and place of isolation, were analyzed by...
