Type 1 fimbriae-mediated collective protection against type 6 secretion system attacks
mBioBacterial competition may rely on secretion systems such as the type 6 secretion system (T6SS), which punctures and releases toxic molecules into neighboring cells.

T6SS Expression of Vibrio parahaemolyticus in Intraspecific Competition [PDF]
, 2016 The rise of antibiotic-resistant bacteria has reached an alarming level. The recently discovered type VI secretion system (T6SS) appears to be a bacterial defense mechanism that could potentially become involved with addressing this concern.

The predicted T6SS gene cluster of A. baumannii strain M2.
, 2013 A single ∼23 kb gene cluster, asaA-tssBC-hcp-tssEFG-asaB-tssM-tagFN-asaC-tssHAKL-asaDE carries 18 putative genes predicted to encode for components of a T6SS. The genome of A.

T6SS mutants exploit itaconate to support infection of phagocytes
Abstract Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a major cause of persistent pneumonias that are not readily cleared by seemingly appropriate antimicrobial therapy. We identified a reservoir of P. aeruginosa variants lacking expression of the H3-T6SS in patients with chronic but

The role of the type VI secretion system in the stress resistance of plant-associated bacteria
Stress BiologyThe type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a powerful bacterial molecular weapon that can inject effector proteins into prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells, thereby participating in the competition between bacteria and improving bacterial environmental ...

Type Six Secretion System (T6SS) in Aquatic Pathogens
The Philippine Journal of FisheriesFor 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.

Genetically engineering Pseudomonas strains for T6SS-dependent controlled release of effectors. [PDF]
Type VI secretion systems (T6SS) are Gram-negative bacteria’s syringe-like nanomachine that injects effectors into prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells leading to the death of their target.
