Resumen Información suministrada por el agente en SIGEVA
Copper (Cu) plays a key role at the host–pathogen interface as both an essential element and a toxic element. Intracellular strains of pathogenic Salmonella have acquired the periplasmic Cu chaperone, CueP, and the thiol oxidoreductases complex Scs, while losing the ancestral Cu-detoxification Cus system. Coregulation of these species-specific factors link Cu with redox stress and allows Salmonella to counteract Cu toxicity during infection.
