ClyASTy and ClyASPaA are closely related pore-forming cytolysins of Salmonella enterica serovars Typhi and Paratyphi A whose expression is strongly repressed under standard in vitro growth conditions. We show here that human infections by these pathogens cause a specific antibody response to ClyA, indicating effective toxin production during infection.
ClyASTy和ClyASPaA是伤寒沙门氏菌和甲型副伤寒沙门氏菌密切相关的成孔细胞溶素,在标准体外生长条件下其表达受到强烈抑制。我们在此表明,这些病原体引起的人类感染会引发针对ClyA的特异性抗体反应,表明感染期间毒素有效产生。
