Secretin interactions in the type II secretion system [PDF]
, 2012 PhDThe type II secretion system (T2SS) is the major terminal branch of the general secretory pathway. It is composed of 12-15 proteins, most in multiple copies, and spans the inner and outer membranes of Gram-negative bacteria.

Type III secretion system chaperones: a helping hand for secretion. [PDF]
Microbiology (Reading)The type III secretion system (T3SS) is a virulence mechanism commonly used by Gram-negative bacterial pathogens to deliver virulence proteins, known as effectors, into infected cells.

Distribution and diversity of bacterial secretion systems across metagenomic datasets [PDF]
, 2012 Bacteria can manipulate their surrounding environment through the secretion of proteins into other living organisms and into the extracellular milieu. In Gram stain negative bacteria this process is mediated by different types of secretion systems from ...
