abstract：:Specific non-typhoid Salmonella serovars carry large virulence plasmids that promote sustained extra-intestinal infections. These plasmids all share a highly conserved 8-kb region containing the spv operon, consisting of the regulatory spvR locus and the four structural spvABCD genes. The SpvR protein belongs to the L...
