Identification and characterization of a type III secretion system in Chlamydophila psittaci [PDF]
Chlamydiaceae are obligate intracellular Gram-negative bacteria replicating in vacuoles inside eukaryotic cells. It has been proven that most of them possess a type III secretion system (T3SS) allowing them to transfer effector molecules in the host cell.
