T6SS intraspecific competition orchestrates Vibrio cholerae genotypic diversity [PDF]
Vibrio cholerae is a diverse species that inhabits a wide range of environments from copepods in brackish waterto the intestines of humans. In order to remain competitive, V.

T6SS: A Key to Pseudomonas’s Success in Biocontrol?
Bacteria from the genus Pseudomonas have been extensively studied for their capacity to act as biological control agents of disease and pests and for their ability to enhance and promote crop production in agricultural systems. While initial research primarily focused on the human pathogenic bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa, recent studies indicate the ...

Engineering a customizable antibacterial T6SS-based platform in Vibrio natriegens [PDF]
ABSTRACT Bacterial pathogens are a major risk to human, animal, and plant health. To counteract the spread of antibiotic resistance, alternative antibacterial strategies are urgently needed. Here, we constructed a proof-of-concept customizable, modular, and inducible antibacterial toxin delivery platform.

Identification of a functional type VI secretion system in Campylobacter jejuni conferring capsule polysaccharide sensitive cytotoxicity. [PDF]
The pathogen Campylobacter jejuni is the principal cause of bacterial food-borne infections. The mechanism(s) that contribute to bacterial survival and disease are still poorly understood.

Identification of A Putative T6SS Immunity Islet in Salmonella Typhi [PDF]
Typhoid fever is a major global health problem and is the result of systemic infections caused by the human-adapted bacterial pathogen Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi (S. Typhi). The pathology underlying S. Typhi infections significantly differ from infections caused by broad host range serovars of the same species, which are a common cause of ...

Genome Wide Identification, Characterization and Evolutionary Analysis of T6SS in Burkholderia cenocepacia Strains [PDF]
Pathogens of the Burkholderia genus are causing diseases in a diverse variety of hosts. After the discovery of T6SS, it was found to play a pivotal role in virulence and other pathogenicity factors in different pathogenic Burkholderia species.

A Vibrio T6SS-Mediated Lethality in an Aquatic Animal Model
The rise in sea surface temperature has been linked to the spread of bacteria belonging to the genus Vibrio and the human illnesses associated with them. Since vibrios often share virulence traits horizontally, a better understanding of their virulence potential and determinants can prepare ...
