Abstract Plant pathogenic bacteria cause massive losses in agriculture and damage to natural plant habitats. Bacterial pathogens not only reduce crop production, but they also reduce crop quality by releasing toxins into the environment. Pathogenic bacteria that invade plant tissues must overcome the plant's defense mechanisms. Plants possess an innate

Type III secretion: what's in a name?
The term 'type III secretion' has seen widespread use. However, problems persist in nomenclature. We propose that the standard abbreviation for this kind of secretion should be 'T3S' and that 'type III secretion system' should be abbreviated to 'T3SS ...

Always one step ahead: How pathogenic bacteria use the type III secretion system to manipulate the intestinal mucosal immune system [PDF]
The intestinal immune system and the epithelium are the first line of defense in the gut. Constantly exposed to microorganisms from the environment, the gut has complex defense mechanisms to prevent infections, as well as regulatory pathways to tolerate ...

Hulless barley resists the newly identified sheath rot disease caused by the necrotrophic fungal pathogen Dactylobotrys graminicola by releasing coniferyl aldehyde, a natural compound that disrupts energy production in the fungus. ABSTRACT Dactylobotrys graminicola (Dgr), a necrotrophic fungal pathogen, has recently been identified as the causative ...

Characterization of the Mesorhizobium loti MAFF303099 Type-Three Protein Secretion System
Type III secretion systems (T3SS) have been found in several species of rhizobia. Proteins (termed effectors) secreted by this system are involved in host-range determination and influence nodulation efficiency.

Jasmonate signalling underpins establishment of plant systemic acquired resistance (SAR). Activation of the hypersensitive response (HR) not only contains the pathogen but establishes broad spectrum resistance in unchallenged leaves. The strong burst of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species initiating the HR results in lipid peroxidation (illustrated by ...

Syndromic convergence (SyCo) reframes aquaculture disease as the synergistic product of climate‐driven stressors, pathobiome communities, and host immune compromise, not single pathogens. A five‐criterion scoring matrix, composite early warning index, and three‐layer intervention framework together operationalize this shift toward predictive ...

Deep Mutational Scanning for the Study and Engineering of Protein Assemblies
This review explores how deep mutational scanning (DMS) can be used to improve understanding and accelerate engineering of protein assemblies, from natural fibers to engineered nanocages. We discuss various types of protein assemblies and their characterization, provide an introduction to the DMS technique, and then highlight examples in which DMS has ...

Inhibition of type III secretion in Salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium by small-molecule inhibitors [PDF]
Type III secretion systems (T3SS) are conserved in many pathogenic gram-negative bacteria. Small molecules that specifically target T3SS in Yersinia and Chlamydia spp. have recently been identified. Here we show that two such compounds inhibit Salmonella
