zoonotic potential?
all salmonella excepts s gallinarum and s pullorum (specialized for birds)
which 3 salmonella are part of the 7 poultry priority diseases
s pullorum
s gallinarum
s enterica var enteritidis
what is different about s gallinarum and s pullorum
non motile, no flagella
specialized for birds, non zoonotic
what species is salmonella devastating in
poultry
equine
adhesion structures
fimbriae (pili)
5-10 flagella
capsule
LPS (endotoxin) – lipid A – causes gangrene
enzymes
catalase
superoxide dismutase – protect against ROS
siderophores – rob iron
toxins
genome or plasmids at pathogenicity islands
T3SS
adhesins
invasins
hemagglutinins
exotoxins
what does the intracellular invasion
T3SS-1
what induces intracellular multiplication in salomella containign vacuoles in the cytosol
T3SS-2
what is T3SS-1 encoded on, what does it do
encoded on SPI-1
inject virulence proteins into host cells, transfer bacterial factors for host cell invasion
what is T3SS-2 encoded on, what does it do
encoded on SPI-2
transfer effector proteins for intracellular survival and multiplication
what helps with intracellular invasion and spread to other cells
SCV formation in cytosol
T3SS-2
host actin filament deposition around salmonella using SifA
