Here's the link to the companion paper: journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/... - together, our studies show that PgtE enables Salmonella to evade innate immunity and cause bacteremia.
African Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium ST313 isolates prevent reactive oxygen species production by human neutrophils via elevated PgtE expression | mBio
The S. enterica serotype Typhimurium omptin family protease PgtE has long been known to cleave complement factors bound to the bacterial surface, but a role for complement inactivation by PgtE in avoidance of serum bactericidal activity was found only for ...
