Molecular Targets and Strategies for Inhibition of the Bacterial Type III Secretion System (T3SS); Inhibitors Directly Binding to T3SS Components. [PDF]
The type III secretion system (T3SS) is a virulence apparatus used by many Gram-negative pathogenic bacteria to cause infections. Pathogens utilizing a T3SS are responsible for millions of infections yearly. Since many T3SS knockout strains are incapable

Genome Analysis Identifies a Novel Type III Secretion System (T3SS) Category in Vibrio Species. [PDF]
The nanomachine referred to as the type III secretion system (T3SS) is used by many Gram-negative pathogens or symbionts to inject their effector proteins into host cells to promote their infections or symbioses.

Computational approach to predict species-specific type III secretion system (T3SS) effectors using single and multiple genomes. [PDF]
Many gram-negative bacteria use type III secretion systems (T3SSs) to translocate effector proteins into host cells. T3SS effectors can give some bacteria a competitive edge over others within the same environment and can help bacteria to invade the host

Protein Export via the Type III Secretion System of the Bacterial Flagellum
The bacterial flagellum and the related virulence-associated injectisome system of pathogenic bacteria utilize a type III secretion system (T3SS) to export substrate proteins across the inner membrane in a proton motive force-dependent manner.

Regulation of the Pseudomonas syringae Type III Secretion System by Host Environment Signals
Pseudomonas syringae are Gram-negative, plant pathogenic bacteria that use a type III secretion system (T3SS) to disarm host immune responses and promote bacterial growth within plant tissues. Despite the critical role for type III secretion in promoting
