The Salmonella enterica Pan-genome [PDF]
Salmonella enterica is divided into four subspecies containing a large number of different serovars, several of which are important zoonotic pathogens and some show a high degree of host specificity or host preference. We compare 45 sequenced S. enterica genomes that are publicly available (22 complete and 23 draft genome sequences).

Recombination and Population Structure in Salmonella enterica [PDF]
Salmonella enterica is a bacterial pathogen that causes enteric fever and gastroenteritis in humans and animals. Although its population structure was long described as clonal, based on high linkage disequilibrium between loci typed by enzyme electrophoresis, recent examination of gene sequences has revealed that recombination plays an important ...

Molecular differentiation between Salmonella enterica subsp enterica serovar Pullorum and Salmonella enterica subsp enterica serovar Gallinarum [PDF]
S. Pullorum (SP) and S. Gallinarum (SG) are very similar. They are the agents of pullorum disease and fowl typhoid, respectively, and the two diseases are responsible for economic losses in poultry production. Although SP and SG are difficult to be differentiated in routine laboratory procedures, the ability to metabolize ornithine is a biochemical ...

The Giant Adhesin SiiE of Salmonella enterica [PDF]
Salmonella enterica is a Gram-negative, food-borne pathogen, which colonizes the intestinal tract and invades enterocytes. Invasion of polarized cells depends on the SPI1-encoded type III secretion system (T3SS) and the SPI4-encoded type I secretion system (T1SS). The substrate of this T1SS is the non-fimbrial giant adhesin SiiE.

Acquisition of the lac operon by Salmonella enterica [PDF]
Classical bacteriological characteristics of Salmonella enterica indicate that the members of this species are unable to utilize lactose as a carbon source. However, lactose-fermenting (Lac+) strains of several Salmonella serovars have been isolated from different foodborne outbreaks as well as different geographical regions worldwide.

The Genome of Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhi [PDF]
The generation of complete genome sequences provides a blueprint that facilitates the genetic characterization of pathogens and their hosts. The genome of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi (S. Typhi) harbors ~5 million base pairs encoding some 4000 genes, of which >200 are functionally inactive. Comparison of S.

Salmonella entericain Pinnipeds, Chile
To the Editor: Several wildlife-associated zoonotic agents have played a major role in the emergence of diseases in humans (1). However, diseases can also emerge in wildlife as a result of human activities, such as contamination of the marine environment and its fauna by the disposal of nontreated human sewage.

Household Contamination withSalmonella enterica1 [PDF]
Household contamination with Salmonella enterica increases when occupational exposure exists (cattle farms with known salmonellosis in cattle, a salmonella research laboratory, or a veterinary clinic experiencing an outbreak of salmonellosis). Fifteen of 55 (27.2%) vacuum cleaner bags from households with occupational exposure to S.

Salmonella entericaSerovar Enteritidis, Japan [PDF]
To the Editor: Nontyphoidal salmonellae are the important causative agents of foodborne diseases in Japan and other industrialized countries. Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis has risen to the leading cause of infection among Salmonella spp. since 1989 (1). Emergence of drug-resistant S. Enteritidis has been rarely reported while S.

Cell tropism of Salmonella enterica
Salmonella serotypes are able to actively cross the intestinal epithelium, mainly but not exclusively through M cells in the follicle-associated epithelium of Peyer's patches. Once reaching the basal side of the epithelium, Salmonella serotypes are internalized by macrophages, dendritic cells, and neutrophils but are not found in fibroblasts or other ...
