| Abstract | Survival of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium within host phagocytic cells is a critical step in establishing systemic infection in mice. Genes within Salmonella pathogenicity island 2 (SPI-2) encode a type III secretion system that is required for establishment of systemic infection. Several proteins encoded by SPI-2 have homology to type III secreted proteins from enteropathogenic Escherichia coli and Yersinia and, based on that homology, are predicted to be secreted through the SPI-2 type III secretion system. We have investigated the roles of two of these proteins, SseC and SseD. We demonstrate here that the SseD protein is required for systemic Salmonella infection of the mouse, and we confirmed the virulence requirement for the SseC protein. Experiments were performed, using cellular fractionation and immunoblotting, to identify the subcellular location of the SseC and SseD proteins. Both proteins were found to localize predominantly to the bacterial cell membrane. In addition, our work revealed that SseC and SseD are exposed to the extracellular environment and are loosely associated with the bacterial membrane. Furthermore, localization of SseC and SseD to the bacterial membrane was found to require a functional SPI-2 type III secretion system. Collectively, these results indicate that the SseC and SseD proteins are secreted by the SPI-2 type III secretion system to the bacterial membrane in order to perform their virulence functions. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
