Uncovering the Secretion Systems of Acinetobacter baumannii: Structures and Functions in Pathogenicity and Antibiotic Resistance [PDF]
Infections led by Acinetobacter baumannii strains are of great concern in healthcare environments due to the strong ability of the bacteria to spread through different apparatuses and develop drug resistance. Severe diseases can be caused by A. baumannii

Substrate secretion by different EHEC secretion systems during their interaction with epithelial cells [PDF]
Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) causes severe foodborne illness in humans. EHEC harbors five types of secretion systems (SSs) and unlike the type three secretion system (T3SS), the other SSs are less explored.

Electron Cryotomography of Bacterial Secretion Systems [PDF]
ABSTRACT In biology, function arises from form. For bacterial secretion systems, which often span two membranes, avidly bind to the cell wall, and contain hundreds of individual proteins, studying form is a daunting task, made possible by electron cryotomography (ECT).

Recruitment of heterologous substrates by bacterial secretion systems for transkingdom translocation [PDF]
Bacterial secretion systems mediate the selective exchange of macromolecules between bacteria and their environment, playing a pivotal role in processes such as horizontal gene transfer or virulence.

Doxycycline alters metabolism and proliferation of human cell lines. [PDF]
The tetracycline antibiotics are widely used in biomedical research as mediators of inducible gene expression systems. Despite many known effects of tetracyclines on mammalian cells-including inhibition of the mitochondrial ribosome-there have been few ...

A DNase Type VI Secretion System Effector Requires Its MIX Domain for Secretion
Gram-negative bacteria often employ the type VI secretion system (T6SS) to deliver diverse cocktails of antibacterial effectors into rival bacteria.

Type III secretion system [PDF]
The type III secretion system (T3SS) is a membrane-embedded nanomachine found in several Gram-negative bacteria. Upon contact between bacteria and host cells, the syringe-like T3SS (Figure 1) transfers proteins termed effectors from the bacterial cytosol to the cytoplasm or the plasma membrane of a single target cell.

The autotransporter secretion system [PDF]
The type V secretion system includes the autotransporter family, the two-partner system and the Oca family. The autotransporter secretion process involving first the translocation of the precursor through the inner membrane and then its translocation through the outer membrane via a pore formed by a beta-barrel is reviewed.
