I. Gentschev et al., SALMONELLA STRAIN SECRETING ACTIVE LISTERIOLYSIN CHANGES ITS INTRACELLULAR-LOCALIZATION, Infection and immunity, 63(10), 1995, pp. 4202-4205
We describe the construction of an attenuated Salmonella dublin aroA s
train which secretes via the Escherichia coli hemolysin secretion mach
inery an active hybrid cytolysin consisting of listeriolysin from List
eria monocytogenes and the C-terminal secretion signal of E. coli hemo
lysin. This hemolytic S. dublin strain is partially released into the
cytoplasm of the host cell following uptake by J774 macrophage cells,
whereas the nonhemolytic control S. dublin aroA strain remains in the
phagosome.
