Proteogenomic annotation of T6SS components identified in Bacteroides fragilis secretome
IntroductionBacteroides fragilis (Bf)’s T6SS locus has been characterized and shown to have functional activity in competition experiments. It has been demonstrated that symbiont nontoxigenic Bf strains have a more effective “weapon” effect on pathogenic Bf, which is realized through the activity of effector-immune (E-I) protein pairs.

Extracellular matrix components are required to protect bacillus subtilis from pseudomonas invasion and co-colonization of plants [PDF]
Plants are colonized by a vast variety of microbes. Among them, bacteria are the most predominant and are able to adapt to environmental changes and interact with other microorganisms using a wide array of molecules, metabolic plasticity and secretion ...

Relevance of bacterial secretion systems Type III and Type VI in the Bradyrhizobium-Lupinus simbiosis [PDF]
One of the most studied models in plant-microbe interaction is the symbiosis Rhizobium-legume. This symbiosis is highly specific and depends on several molecular signals produced by both partners.

T6SS-mediated bacterial antagonism in the classroom
The study of bacterial antagonism, and specifically Type VI secretion System (T6SS)-mediated antagonism, has gained momentum over the last decade in research laboratories across the world. The T6SS is a molecular machine that mediates interbacterial antagonism as well as interactions with the host in the case of pathogenic or commensal organisms. Here,

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a versatile opportunistic bacterial pathogen. Its ability to successfully colonize various environments and hosts is partly due to the capability of P. aeruginosa to outcompete other bacteria. The Type Six Secretion System (T6SS) is one key weapon giving a competitive advantage.

A pyocin-like T6SS effector mediates bacterial competition in Yersinia pseudotuberculosis
ABSTRACT Within the realm of Gram-negative bacteria, bacteriocins are secreted almost everywhere, and the most representative are colicin and pyocin, which are secreted by Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa , respectively. Signal peptides

Structure and properties of the C-terminal β-helical domain of VgrG protein from Escherichia coli O157 [PDF]
The bacterial Type 6 secretion system (T6SS) translocates protein toxins (also called effectors) from the cytosol of a T6SS-carrying cell to a target cell by a syringe-like supramolecular complex resembling a contractile tail of bacteriophages.

Type Six Secretion System (T6SS) in Aquatic Pathogens
For aquaculture to overcome challenges in diseases, preventive and therapeutic interventions are needed. One solution of great potential is the use of bacterial nanomachines. Protein secretion systems facilitate nutrient acquisition, communication, and disease by delivering virulence factors.
