The regulation of bacterial two‐partner secretion systems
Molecular Microbiology, Volume 120, Issue 2, Page 159-177, August 2023., 2023 Two‐partner secretion (TPS) systems play critical roles in bacterial pathogenesis by allowing the secretion of effector proteins such as cytolysins and adhesins. Here, we explore the diverse regulatory mechanisms that govern TPS system expression, including environmental stimuli, two‐component systems, quorum sensing, and global regulators, providing ...
