Abstract excerpt
The type III secretion system (TTSS) encoded by the Salmonella pathogenicity island 2 (SPI-2) is required for bacterial replication inside macrophages and for systemic infection in mice. Many TTSS secreted proteins, including effectors and components of the translocon, require chaperones which promote their stability, prevent their premature interactions or facilitate their secretion. In this study, the function...
