Type 1 fimbriae-mediated collective protection against type 6 secretion system attacks

mBio
Bacterial competition may rely on secretion systems such as the type 6 secretion system (T6SS), which punctures and releases toxic molecules into neighboring cells.

Clinical B. bronchiseptica strains that have lost their T6SS locus are aggregated in Complex IV.

, 2015
Genomes of 58 B. bronchiseptica clinical isolates were compared to prototypical RB50 genome. Presence of T6SS loci, as well as presence of pseudogenes in T6SS loci, was determined for all clinical isolates.

norCBD disruption affects the H2-type six secretion system and multiple virulence factors in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Frontiers in Microbiology
The type six secretion system (T6SS) is a macromolecular weapon used by many Gram-negative bacteria. The T6SS functions as a needle injection system that delivers effector proteins directly into neighboring bacterial cells, thereby affecting their gene ...

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 role of the type VI secretion system in the stress resistance of plant-associated bacteria

Stress Biology
The 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 ...

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

Type Six Secretion System (T6SS) in Aquatic Pathogens

The Philippine Journal of Fisheries
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.

T6SS-mediated competitive exclusion among Pantoea agglomerans associated with plants

Establishment of symbiotic interactions with a host habitat depends on colonization success of the microbiome members. One route to success is increasing competitiveness against genotypes having similar adaptations.
