Fluorescent protein-based reporters reveal stress response of intracellular Salmonella enterica on single cell level
Intracellular bacteria such as Salmonella enterica are confronted with a broad array of defense mechanisms of their mammalian host cells. The ability to sense host cell-imposed damages, and to mount efficient stress responses are crucial for survival and proliferation of intracellular pathogens. The various combinations of host defense mechanisms acting on intracellular bacteria and their…
