| Abstract | Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, a gram-negativefacultative rod-shaped bacterium causing salmonellosis and foodborne disease,is one of the most common isolated Salmonella serovars inboth developed and developing nations. Several S. Typhimuriumgenomes have been completed and many more genome-sequencing projects are underway.Comparative genome analysis of the multiple strains leads to a better understandingof the evolution of S. Typhimurium and its pathogenesis. S.Typhimurium strain UK-1 (belongs to phage type 1) is highly virulent whenorally administered to mice and chickens and efficiently colonizes lymphoidtissues of these species. These characteristics make this strain a good choicefor use in vaccine development. In fact, UK-1 has been used as the parentstrain for a number of nonrecombinant and recombinant vaccine strains, includingseveral commercial vaccines for poultry. In this study, we conducted a thoroughcomparative genome analysis of the UK-1 strain with other S.Typhimurium strains and examined the phenotypic impact of several genomicdifferences. Whole genomic comparison highlights an extremely close relationshipbetween the UK-1 strain and other S. Typhimurium strains;however, many interesting genetic and genomic variations specific to UK-1were explored. In particular, the deletion of a UK-1-specific gene that ishighly similar to the gene encoding the T3SS effector protein NleC exhibiteda significant decrease in oral virulence in BALB/c mice. The complete geneticcomplements in UK-1, especially those elements that contribute to virulenceor aid in determining the diversity within bacterial species, provide keyinformation in evaluating the functional characterization of important geneticdeterminants and for development of vaccines. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
