Identification Of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi Putative Virulence Factors Using A Yeast Growth Inhibition Assay

Pathogenic bacteria such as Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi (S. Typhi) evade the host immune system and cause disease in their host by producing proteins known as virulence factors (VFs). When VFs are expressed in yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S. cerevisiae), they have been observed to be detrim...
