Membranes were reused after being washed with 0.4 N sodium hydroxide at 42°C for 2 to 5 h and with 0.1x SSC-0.1% SDS-0.2 M Tris- HC1 (pH 7.5) at 42°C for 2 h. Washed blots were exposed to X-Omat AR film to verify successful washing. Colony blots were prepared as described elsewhere (Maniatis, T., et al., Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual (1982), Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y.) and hybridized as described above.
  • Salmonella Strains A total of 91 Salmonella strains (Table 2) were tested for their ability to invade cultured Henle-407 cells. All strains were clinical isolates from humans and a variety of other animal species. These isolates represent the species S. typhi, S. choleraesuis. and S. enteritidis and a large number of serovars belonging to a variety of O-antigenic types.
  • invABC genes were originally cloned from S. typhimurium SR-11 as described (Galan & Curtiss, Proc
  • the library was transduced into ⁇ 2819, in vivo packed as described (Jacobs, W.R., et al., Infect Immun (1986) 52:101-109), and stored as a lysate over
  • strain DB4673 although unable to penetrate Henle-407 cells, was able to adhere to these cells at levels equivalent to those of a wild-type strain.
  • Strain DB4673 was, therefore, used as a recipient for a S. typhimurium SR-11 DNA library in the cosmid vector pREG153, to isolate genes that rendered DB4673 capable of invading monolayers of Henle-407 cells.
  • a cosmid clone (pYA2217) was isolated which conferred on DB4673 the ability to penetrate Henle-407 cells as efficiently as its wild-type progenitor.
  • Insertion inv- 61 and three other similar insertions that completely abolished the invasive phenotype, yielded productive fusions to alkaline phosphatase indicating that these insertions most likely resided within the structural gene of a secreted protein (Manoil & Beckwith, Proc Natl Acad Sci USA (1985) 82:8129-8133).
  • Plasmid-encoded polypeptides were analyzed in a DNA-directed in vitro transcription/translation system.
  • the pYA2219 insert DNA encoded at least six proteins (in addition to those encoded by the vector pACYC184) with the following molecular masses: 86, 64 (sometimes migrating as a doublet), 54, 47, 33, and 30 kDa were specified by TnphoA and both corresponded to similar size proteins encoded by pYA2219.
  • Proteins encoded by a pYA2219inv-61: :TnphoA insert generated a productive alkaline phosphatase fusion, inactivated the expression of the 64-, 54-, and 47-kDA polypeptides and generated a new protein of 50 kDa, a product of the fusion of
  • x67: :TnphoA, x68: :TnphoA, and x21: :TnphoA did not affect the expression of any proteins encoded by pYA2219 and did not affect the invasive phenotype.
  • pACYC184 :TnphoA encoded 54- and 33-kDa proteins that comigrated with two proteins encoded by pYA2219, preventing the unambiguous interpretation of the protein data.
  • pYA2219 a series of overlapping deletions of pYA2219 were constructed by subcloning sequences from pYA2219 into pUC18 and were subjected to in vitro transcription/translation analysis.
  • pYA2220 ( Figure 2A) contains the leftmost end of the 18-kb insert DNA of pYA2219 from the Hindlll to the closest PstI site and encodes three proteins of 64, 54, and 47 kDA in addition to those of pUC18.
  • invA, invB, and invC are in the same transcriptional unit ( Figure 2).
  • Example 2 To determine whether the invABC genes cloned in Example 2 were present in other Salmonella species and serovars and thus would be useful as probes for
  • Salmonella, colony blot hybridization analysis was performed on 91 Salmonella strains (Table 2).
  • the probe used was a 3.4-kb Clal-EcoRI fragment of pYA2220 (probe 1; Figure 2A) that contains most of the invABC operon, with no flanking sequences, as determined by preliminary sequence analysis. All Salmonella strains tested hybridized to the probe under high-stringency conditions (see Materials and Methods). No qualitative difference between the intensities of the signals of the positive control strain (S. typhimurium SR-11) and the other
  • Salmonella strains was detected. The results indicate that these genes are not only present in all or most salmonellae but are also highly conserved.
  • invABC operon The 2.6-kb EcoRI-PvuII and 1.1-kb PvuII- PvuII fragments internal to the invABC operon were conserved in all strains tested, except for S. arizonae strains, which showed a single high-molecular-weight hybridizing fragment. Some polymorphisms were observed in the restriction fragment containing sequences flanking the invABC genes.
  • the invD locus was originally identified by transposon insertional mutagenesis of pYA2219, a plasmid that contains DNA from S. typhimurium SR-11 and was able to complement an invasion-deficient strain of S. typhimurium (Galan & Curtiss, Proc Natl Acad Sci USA (1989) 22:6383-6387).
  • Transposon insertions in the invD locus diminished, but did not abolish, the complementing ability of pYA2219 and also eliminated the expression of a 30-kDa polypeptide in an in vitro
  • probe 3 has sequences that flank invD, since some transposon insertions in pYA2219 that mapped near one end of the 2.4-kb EcoRI fragment did not affect the complementing ability of this plasmid and therefore are assumed to be outside invD. In addition, probe 3 contains more DNA than would be needed to encode a 30-kDa polypeptide, the product of inyD.
  • Salmonella species and serovars are useful as an agent to detect the same.
  • invA mutants (unable to express the invABC genes) of S. typhi. S. gallinarum. S. dublin, and S. enteritidis were constructed by transducing these strains to kanamycin resistance with a P22HTint lysate prepared on strain SB103.
  • SB103 is an S. typhimurium strain that carries an insertion of a kanamycin
  • a Invasion is expressed as the percentage of the initial inoculum of bacteria that was insensitive to gentamicin because of cell invasion. The values represent the averages ⁇ standard deviations for three samples, Similar results were obtained in several repetitions of this experiment.
  • Taq polymerase was used. See, e.g. U.S. Patent No. 4,683,195 and 4,683,202 and Saiki, R.K., et al.,
  • enteric bacteria other than Salmonella strains have been shown to invade cultured epithelial cells (Miller, V.L., et al., Curr Top Microbiol Immunol (1988) 138:15-39; Small, H., Infect Immun (1987) 55:1674- 1679). Accordingly, several of these strains, including Yersinia spp., Shigella spp., and enteroinvasive and enteropathogenic E. coli, were tested for DNA sequences similar to invABC or invD. The 3.4-kb Clal-EcoRI
