A Pseudomonas aeruginosa type VI secretion system regulated by CueR facilitates copper acquisition.
The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is widely distributed in Gram-negative bacteria, whose function is known to translocate substrates to eukaryotic and prokaryotic target cells to cause host damage or as a weapon for interbacterial competition ...

Effector–Immunity Pairs Provide the T6SS Nanomachine its Offensive and Defensive Capabilities
Type VI protein secretion systems (T6SSs) are specialized transport apparatus which can target both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells and play key roles in host–pathogen–microbiota interactions.

Burkholderia BcpA mediates biofilm formation independently of interbacterial contact dependent growth inhibition [PDF]
Contact dependent growth inhibition (CDI) is a phenomenon in which Gram-negative bacteria use the toxic C-terminus of a large surface-exposed exoprotein to inhibit the growth of susceptible bacteria upon cell-cell contact.

Independent Regulation of Type VI Secretion in Vibrio cholerae by TfoX and TfoY
Type VI secretion systems (T6SSs) are nanomachines used for interbacterial killing and intoxication of eukaryotes. Although Vibrio cholerae is a model organism for structural studies on T6SSs, the underlying regulatory network is less understood.

Exploring the ordoliberal paradigm : the competition-democracy nexus [PDF]
The present article purports to shed a new light on ordoliberalism and to explore its role in EU competition law. For this purpose, the article analyses the ordoliberal school of thought in its historical context and re-conceptualizes its understanding ...

Transferred interbacterial antagonism genes augment eukaryotic innate immune function
Horizontal gene transfer allows organisms to rapidly acquire adaptive traits(1). Although documented instances of horizontal gene transfer from bacteria to eukaryotes remain rare, bacteria represent a rich source of new functions potentially available ...

Antibiotic residues and R-plasmid selection: are in vitro methods good models? [PDF]
Three clones of E. coli, one of which was harbouring a tetracycline resistance plasmid were inoculated together into the stomach of axenic mice. Without antibiotic selective pressure, the R-Plasmid bearing strain became dominant in the faeces of mice ...
