Protein secretion systems in Mycobacteria [PDF]
Cellular Microbiology, 2007 Mycobacteria have a unique cell-envelope structure which protects the bacteria from the extracellular environment by limiting access to noxious molecules from the outside. This extremely hydrophobic and thick barrier also poses a unique problem for the export of bacterial products. Here we review the multiple protein secretion pathways in Mycobacteria,

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2007 Mycoplasmas are very fastidious in their nutritional requirements for in vitro growth and have limited biosynthetic capacity, a reflection of their reduced genomes. As a result, these bacteria depend upon external metabolites for nutrition and growth and

Type VI secretion system [PDF]
Current Biology, 2015 Bacteria employ a variety of tools to survive in a competitive environment. Salomon and Orth describe one such tool-the Type 6 Secretion Systems used by bacteria to deliver a variety of toxins into competing cells.

Type VI secretion system: secretion by a contractile nanomachine [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2015 The type VI secretion systems (T6SS) are present in about a quarter of all Gram-negative bacteria. Several key components of T6SS are evolutionarily related to components of contractile nanomachines such as phages and R-type pyocins. The T6SS assembly is initiated by formation of a membrane complex that binds a phage-like baseplate with a sharp spike ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 Pseudomonas syringae pv. aptata is a member of the sugar beet pathobiome and the causative agent of leaf spot disease. Like many pathogenic bacteria, P. syringae relies on the secretion of toxins, which manipulate host-pathogen interactions, to establish

Type VII Secretion: A Highly Versatile Secretion System
Microbiology Spectrum, 2016 ABSTRACTType VII secretion (T7S) systems of mycobacteria secrete substrates over the unusual diderm cell envelope. Furthermore, T7S gene clusters are present throughout the phylumActinobacteria, and functional T7S-like systems have been identified inFirmicutes.

Delivery of Toxins and Effectors by Bacterial Membrane Vesicles
Toxins, 2021 Pathogenic bacteria interact with cells of their host via many factors. The surface components, i.e., adhesins, lipoproteins, LPS and glycoconjugates, are particularly important in the initial stages of colonization.

Translation/Secretion Coupling by Type III Secretion Systems [PDF]
Cell, 2000 Type III secretion systems mediate export of virulence proteins and flagellar assembly subunits in Gram-negative bacteria. Chaperones specific to each class of secreted protein are believed to prevent degradation of the secreted substrates. We show that an additional role of chaperones may be to regulate translation of secreted proteins.
