https://www.selleckchem.com/products/relacorilant.html Salmonella Typhimurium survives and replicates inside the oxidative environment of phagocytic cells. Proteins, because of their composition and location, are the foremost targets of host inflammatory response. Among others, Met-residues are highly prone to oxidation. Methionine sulfoxide reductase (Msr), with the help of thioredoxin-thioredoxin reductase, can repair oxidized methionine (Met-SO) residues to Met. There are four methionine sulfoxide reductases localized in the cytosol of S. Typhimurium, MsrA, MsrB, MsrC and BisC. MsrA repairs both protein-bound and free 'S' Met-SO, MsrB repairs protein-bound 'R' Met-SO, MsrC repairs free 'R' Met-SO and BisC repairs free 'S' Met-SO. To assess the role(s) of various Msrs in Salmonella, few studies have been conducted by utilizing ΔmsrA, ΔmsrB, ΔmsrC, ΔmsrAΔmsrB, ΔmsrBΔmsrC and ΔbisC mutant strains of S. Typhimurium. Out of the above-mentioned mutants, ΔmsrA and ΔmsrC were found to play important role in the stress survival of this bacterium; however, the combined roles of these two genes have not been determined. In the current study, we have generated msrAmsrC double gene deletion strain (ΔmsrAΔmsrC) of S. Typhimurium and evaluated the effect of gene deletions on the survival of Salmonella against hypochlorite stress and intramacrophage replication. In in vitro growth curve analysis, ΔmsrAΔmsrC mutant strain showed a longer lag phase during the initial stages of the growth; however, it attained similar growth as the wild type strain of S. Typhimurium after 5 h. The ΔmsrAΔmsrC mutant strain has been highly (~ 3000 folds more) sensitive (p  less then  0.001) to hypochlorite stress. Further, ΔmsrA and ΔmsrAΔmsrC mutant strains showed more than 8 and 26 folds more susceptibility to poultry macrophages, respectively. Our data suggest that the deletion of both msrA and msrC genes severely affect the oxidative stress survival and intramacrophage proliferation of S. Typhimu
