Disease relevance of ratB

  • DNA hybridization analysis revealed that the CS54 island is comprised of two regions with distinct phylogenetic distribution within the genus SALMONELLA: Homologues of shdA and ratB were detected only in serotypes of Salmonella enterica subsp [1].
 

High impact information on ratB

  • The shdA and ratB deletion strains exhibited a shedding defect in mice, whereas the sivH deletion strain was shed at numbers similar to the wild type [1].
  • A strain containing a deletion in the ratB gene exhibited a defect for the colonization of the cecum but not of the Peyer's patches, mesenteric lymph nodes, and spleen [1].
