Abstract

The type III secretion system encoded by the pathogenicity island 2 (SPI-2) has a central role in the pathogenesis of systemic infections by . Sixteen genes (, , , , , , , , , , , , , , and ) of SPI-2 were targeted for PCR amplification in 57 seafood-associated serovars of . The gene of SPI-2 was found to be absent in two isolates of serovar Weltevreden, SW13 and SW39. Absence of was confirmed by sequencing using flanking primers. SW13 had only 66 bp sequence of the gene and SW39 had 58 bp sequence of this gene. A clinical isolate, . Weltevreden – SW3, 10 : r : z6 – was used to construct a deletion mutant for the gene. Significant reduction in the survival of SW3, 10 : r : z6 Δ and natural mutants SW13 and SW39 in HeLa cells suggests that has a crucial role in the intracellular survival of . Weltevreden. Expression of was upregulated during the intracellular phase of both serovar Typhimurium and clinical isolate . Weltevreden SW3, 10 : r : z6, suggesting a crucial role for this gene in the survival of . Weltevreden inside host cells.
