Popis: YdcP, a U32 peptidase, is characterized as a putative collagenase with a role in several bacterial infections. However, its role in the pathogenesis of Salmonella Typhimurium remains elusive. Here, we investigated the role of U32 peptidase, YdcP, in the intracellular survival of S. Typhimurium (STM). Our study revealed a novel function of YdcP in protecting wild-type Salmonella from in vitro and in vivo oxidative stress. The ydcP knockout strain showed attenuated intracellular proliferation within the murine and human macrophages. Incubation of wild-type Salmonella with H
