Acid-induced type VI secretion system is regulated by ExoR-ChvG/ChvI signaling cascade in Agrobacterium tumefaciens. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2012
The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a widespread, versatile protein secretion system in pathogenic Proteobacteria. Several T6SSs are tightly regulated by various regulatory systems at multiple levels.

A modular effector with a DNase domain and a marker for T6SS substrates [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
AbstractBacteria deliver toxic effectors via type VI secretion systems (T6SSs) to dominate competitors, but the identity and function of many effectors remain unknown. Here we identify a Vibrio antibacterial T6SS effector that contains a previously undescribed, widespread DNase toxin domain that we call PoNe (Polymorphic Nuclease effector).

Type VI secretion system : secretion by a contractile nanomachine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The type VI secretion systems (T6SS) are present in about a quarter of all Gram-negative bacteria. Several key components of T6SS are evolutionarily related to components of contractile nanomachines such as phages and R-type pyocins. The T6SS assembly is

T6SS: The bacterial “Fight Club” in the host gut

open access: yesPLOS Pathogens, 2017
The mammalian gut is home to a densely populated community of microorganisms that not only provide their host with nutritional benefits but also offer protection against foreign pathogens. Since the gut is an environment limited in both space and nutrients, these microbes have evolved multiple mechanisms and strategies to either coexist or compete with

NrtR Mediated Regulation of H1-T6SS in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2022
NrtR is a Nudix-related transcriptional regulator and controls the NAD cofactor biosynthesis in bacteria. P. aeruginosa NrtR binds to the intergenic region between nadD2 and pncA to repress the expression of the two operons, therefore controlling the NAD biosynthesis ...

Composition, function, and regulation of T6SS in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

open access: yesMicrobiological Research, 2015
Bacterial cells can communicate with their surrounding environment through secretion systems. Type VI secretion system (T6SS) is one of the most recently discovered secretion systems, which is distributed widely in Gram-negative bacteria such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa), an important opportunistic pathogen.

Endogenous membrane stress induces T6SS activity in Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2020
Significance In this study, we applied a CRISPR interference approach to knock down expression of essential genes involved in cell envelope biogenesis and determined if this can trigger Pseudomonas aeruginosa T6SS apparatus assembly.

Transfer of T6SSSPI-19 from Salmonella Gallinarum to Salmonella Typhimurium Lacking T6SSSPI-6 Complements its Colonization Defect in Mice

open access: yesPolish Journal of Microbiology, 2023
Salmonella genus harbors five Type VI Secretion System (T6SS) gene clusters. The T6SS encoded in SPI-6 (T6SSSPI-6) contributes to Salmonella Typhimurium colonization of chickens and mice, while the T6SS encoded in SPI-19 (T6SSSPI-19) of Salmonella ...
