Differential regulatory control of curli (csg) gene expression in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi requires more than a functional CsgD regulator
Abstract The human-specific Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi (S. Typhi) causes typhoid fever, a systemic disease with no known reservoir. Curli fimbriae are major components of biofilm produced by Salmonella and are encoded by the csg gene cluster (csgBAC and csgDEFG). The role of curli in S. Typhi...
