Expression of a Yersinia pseudotuberculosis Type VI Secretion System Is Responsive to Envelope Stresses through the OmpR Transcriptional Activator. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The Type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a macromolecular complex widespread in Gram-negative bacteria. Although several T6SS are required for virulence towards host models, most are necessary to eliminate competitor bacteria.

Divergent control of RpoN on H2-T6SS and H3-T6SS.

open access: yes, 2013
The expression of H2-T6SS (A), H3-T6SS left (B), and H3-T6SS right (C) after 7 hours (A), or 9 hours (B & C) of growth at 37°C in the WT strain (blue bars), in a PAO1ΔrpoN mutant complemented strain (green bars, PAO6360 strain) or the PAO1 ΔrpoN mutant ...

Genetically complemented V. coralliilyticus T6SS mutant challenge assay.

open access: yes, 2020
The V. coralliilyticus OCN008 ΔvasK strain (T6SS-) and the ΔvasK strain carrying a plasmid expressing a wild-type copy of vasK (pBU270) were challenged against T6SS+ V. cholerae (black bars) or T6SS+ V. cholerae (grey bars). V. cholerae strains were also

Calcium Promotes T6SS-Mediated Killing and Aggregation between Competing Symbionts

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2022
Microbes deploy competitive mechanisms to gain access to resources such as nutrients or space within an ecological niche. Identifying when and where these strategies are employed can be challenging given the complexity and variability of most natural systems; therefore, studies evaluating specific cues that conditionally regulate interbacterial ...

The Type VI secretion systems of the insect pathogen Photorhabdus luminescens are involved in interbacterial competition, motility and secondary metabolism

open access: yesThe Microbe
The Type VI Secretion System (T6SS) is used as weapon by a variety of Gram-negative bacteria in polymicrobial niche competition. Its characterization and study gained more interest in recent years.

A Novel Plant Secondary Metabolite‐Binding Gene Family Required for Full Virulence in Pectobacterium parvum

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
A newly identified virulence family from Pectobacterium parvum that binds plant defensive compounds (e.g., solanidine) with high affinity enhances bacterial tolerance and is required for full virulence. This trade‐off between defence and growth reveals a key host‐adaptation strategy.

H2-T6SS and H3-T6SS are coregulated by QS.

open access: yes, 2013
(A) Expression patterns of the H2-T6SS, H3-T6SS left, and H3-T6SS right lacZ transcriptional fusions from the WT PAO1 strain (PAO1TS2, PAO1TS19 and PAO1TS20 respectively) and of a control strain (PAO1Z).

Pantoea ananatis Utilizes a Type VI Secretion System for Pathogenesis and Bacterial Competition

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2015
Type VI secretion systems (T6SSs) are a class of macromolecular machines that are recognized as an important virulence mechanism in several gram-negative bacteria.

OxyR directly activates T6SS-4 expression.

open access: yes, 2015
A. OxyR binds the T6SS-4 promoter. Biotin-labeled probe or its mutant was incubated with OxyR. The protein-DNA complexes were detected by streptavidin-conjugated HRP and chemiluminescent substrate.
