Role of the viaB locus in synthesis, transport and expression of Salmonella typhi Vi antigen.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 Dec 1995

Virlogeux I, Waxin H, Ecobichon C, Popoff M Y

Abstract excerpt

The Vi antigen is a capsular polysaccharide expressed by Salmonella typhi, the agent of human typhoid fever. Expression of this antigen is controlled by the viaA and viaB chromosomal loci. The viaB locus is composed of 11 genes designated tviA-tviE (typhi Vi), vexA-vexE (Vi antigen export) and OR...
