The architecture and ppGpp-dependent expression of the primary transcriptome of Salmonella Typhimurium during invasion gene expression.

BACKGROUND: Invasion of intestinal epithelial cells by Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) requires expression of the extracellular virulence gene expression programme (ST(EX)), activation of which is dependent on the signalling molecule guanosine tetraphosphate (ppGpp).
