T6SS: killing two bugs with one stone [PDF]

Trends in Microbiology, 2021
International audienceBacteria deploy the type VI secretion system (T6SS) to inject effectors into bacterial rivals. Contrary to the prevailing model, a recent study expands the target range of the T6SS by demonstrating that it delivers and potentializes

The Pseudomonas putida T6SS is a plant warden against phytopathogens [PDF]

The ISME Journal, 2016
Bacterial type VI secretion systems (T6SSs) are molecular weapons designed to deliver toxic effectors into prey cells. These nanomachines play an important role in inter-bacterial competition and provide advantages to T6SS active strains in polymicrobial

Killing in the name of: T6SS structure and effectors diversity

Microbiology, 2023
The life of bacteria is challenging, to endure bacteria employ a range of mechanisms to optimise their environment, including deploying the type VI secretion system (T6SS).

A visual assay to monitor T6SS-mediated bacterial competition [PDF]

Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2013
Type VI secretion systems (T6SSs) are molecular nanomachines allowing Gram-negative bacteria to transport and inject proteins into a wide variety of target cells1,2. The T6SS is composed of 13 core components and displays structural similarities with the

Pseudomonas aeruginosa type six secretion system (T6SS): The Tse7 DNase effector and post-translational regulation of the H1-T6SS [PDF]

, 2018
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.

Initiation of H1-T6SS dueling between Pseudomonas aeruginosa

mBio
The Type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a multicomponent apparatus, present in many Gram-negative bacteria, which can inhibit bacterial prey in various ecological niches.

Atomic structure of T6SS reveals interlaced array essential to function. [PDF]

Cell, 2015
SummaryType VI secretion systems (T6SSs) are newly identified contractile nanomachines that translocate effector proteins across bacterial membranes. The Francisella pathogenicity island, required for bacterial phagosome escape, intracellular replication,

The RIX domain defines a class of polymorphic T6SS effectors and secreted adaptors

Nature Communications, 2023
Bacteria use the type VI secretion system (T6SS) to deliver toxic effectors into bacterial or eukaryotic cells during interbacterial competition, host colonization, or when resisting predation.

T6SS-mediated competition by Stenotrophomonas rhizophila shapes seed-borne bacterial communities and seed-to-seedling transmission dynamics

mSystems
Seeds harbor diverse microbial communities important for plant growth and health. During germination, seed exudation triggers intense microbial competition, shaping the communities transmitted to seedlings.
