Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar typhimurium is a gram-negative serious contagious pathogen having a broad host range. It has been associated with a wide spectrum of infectious diseases, including typhoid fever and nontyphoidal salmonellosis, which cause public health problems worldwide. Several genes contribute in virulence and determine pathogenicity of this isolate. inv E is an important invasion gene, member of Salmonella pathogenicity island1 (SPI-1) which helps pathogen to invade the host intestinal epithelial cell and also mediates the translocation of several bacterial effector proteins that have the capacity to stimulate cellular responses leading to bacterial internalization and the reprogramming of gene expression in the infected cells. | Cloning sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of inv E gene of salmonella typhimurium
