Regulatory Evolution Drives Evasion of Host Inflammasomes by Salmonella Typhimurium

Summary: Bacterial two-component regulatory systems (TCS) couple the detection of niche-specific cues with adaptive gene expression to optimize fitness. In Salmonella Typhimurium (STM), the SsrA-SsrB TCS regulates virulence genes needed for survival within host cells, yet the impact of this TCS on r...
