Vibrio cholerae as a predator: lessons from evolutionary principles
Diarrheal diseases are the second-most common cause of death among children under the age of five worldwide. Cholera alone, caused by the marine bacterium Vibrio cholerae, is responsible for several million cases and over 120,000 deaths annually.

Integrated regulation of the type III secretion system and other virulence determinants in Ralstonia solanacearum [PDF]
In many plant and animal bacterial pathogens, the Type III secretion system (TTSS) that directly translocates effector proteins into the eukaryotic host cells is essential for the development of disease.

Characterization of the SPI-1 and Rsp type three secretion systems in Pseudomonas fluorescens F113 [PDF]
Pseudomonas fluorescens F113 is a plant growthpromoting rhizobacterium (PGPR) isolated from the sugar beet rhizosphere. The recent annotation of the F113 genome sequence has revealed that this strain encodes a wide array of secretion systems, including ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

YscP, a key player in the type three secretion system of "Yersinia enterocolitica" [PDF]
The Yersinia injectisome needle has a constant length of around 60nm. Mutants affected in the yscP gene display abnormally long needles, suggesting that needle length is genetically controlled and that YscP is involved in this process. First, both N- and

Staphylococcus aureus is a pervasive human pathogen that heavily relies on protein secretion to exert its virulence strategies. S. aureus encodes a specialized type VIIb secretion system (T7SSb) that contributes to virulence and persistence in the host ...
