Graduated in Biological Sciences at the Universidade de São Paulo in 2019. During her scientific initiation (2018-2020), she characterized a protein secreted by Salmonella Typhimurium by the Type VI Secretion System (T6SS). She is currently a Master's student at the Institute of Biomedical Sciences at the Universidade de São Paulo and studies the contribution of Hcps proteins to the Salmonella Typhimurium pathogenesis SPI-6 T6SS-dependent .

Salmonella spp. encode five type VI secretion systems (T6SS) in different pathogenicity islands. These systems translocate effector proteins into target cells, which can be either eukaryotic or prokaryotic. Hcps (hemolysin-coregulated proteins) are components of T6SS and have several functions. The main one is structural, in which hexamers of Hcps form the tube that is ejected towards the…
Salmonella Typhimurium genome encodes a type VI secretion system (T6SS) within the SPI-6 pathogenicity island important for the establishment of mouse infections. S. Typhimurium SPI-6 T6SS was shown to be important during competitions with bacteria from the intestinal microbiota, and is also activated during infections of macrophages in vitro. Hcp proteins (hemolysin coregulated protein) …
The genome of Salmonella Typhimurium encodes a type VI secretion system (T6SS) inside the Salmonella pathogenicity island (SPI-6). In Salmonella Gallinarum the T6SS is encoded from SPI-19. Genes located inside SPI-6 T6SS from S. Typhimurium are activated during late stages of infection, while SPI-19 T6SS from S. Gallinarum are activated early during the infection of macrophages. The signi…
