Pilotins are mobile T3SS components involved in assembly and substrate specificity of the bacterial type III secretion system [PDF]
Abstract In animal pathogens, assembly of the type III secretion system injectisome requires the presence of so-called pilotins, small lipoproteins that assist the formation of the secretin ring in the outer membrane.

Type III secretion system chaperones: a helping hand for secretion. [PDF]
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.

The MarR Family Transcriptional Regulator EmrR Negatively Regulates the Type III Secretion System (T3SS) and Positively Modulates Pathogenicity in Dickeya oryzae. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The pathogen Dickeya oryzae is responsible for soft rot disease in both monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous plants, resulting in substantial yield losses across a variety of important crops.

HrpS Is a Global Regulator on Type III Secretion System (T3SS) and Non-T3SS Genes in Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. phaseolicola [PDF]
The type III secretion system (T3SS) is the main machinery for Pseudomonas savastanoi and other gram-negative bacteria to invade plant cells. HrpR and HrpS form a hetero-hexamer, which activates the expression of HrpL, which induces all T3SS genes by binding to a ‘hrp box’ in promoters.

Evolution of N-terminal mechanical lability as a determinant for Type III secretion. [PDF]
Abstract Many Gram‐negative pathogens critically depend on the Type III secretion system (T3SS) to inject effector proteins into host cells for colonization. Because the channel of the T3SS is narrow (~2 nm), effectors must be unfolded for secretion.

SlyA Regulates Type III Secretion System (T3SS) Genes in Parallel with the T3SS Master Regulator HrpL in Dickeya dadantii 3937 [PDF]
ABSTRACT The hypersensitive response and pathogenicity ( hrp ) genes of Dickeya dadantii 3937 encode a type III secretion system (T3SS) which is essential for its full virulence. Previous studies of the T3SS regulation in D.

Distribution and diversity of bacterial secretion systems across metagenomic datasets [PDF]
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 ...

Enhancing the Secretion Systems: Genetic Engineering of Super Bioagents for Effective Plant Disease Control. [PDF]
Genetic engineering (GE) overcomes BCA limits, enabling robust, scalable crop protection. “Super Bioagents” (SBs) use optimized SSs to enhance bioactive molecule delivery. Optimizing SSs enhance precise, sustainable effector deployment for stable disease suppression. SBs use microbiome‐informed design for scalable, next‐gen sustainable crop protection.

Synthesis and structure–activity relationships of novel phenoxyacetamide inhibitors of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa type III secretion system (T3SS) [PDF]
The increasing prevalence of drug-resistant bacterial infections is driving the discovery and development not only of new antibiotics, but also of inhibitors of virulence factors that are crucial for in vivo pathogenicity. One such virulence factor is the type III secretion system (T3SS), which plays a critical role in the establishment and ...

Edwardsiella ictaluri type III secretion system (T3SS) effector EseN is a phosphothreonine lyase that inactivates ERK1/2 [PDF]
EseN is a type III secretion system (T3SS) effector that is encoded on the Edwardsiella ictaluri chromosome and is homologous to a family of T3SS effector proteins with phosphothreonine lyase (PTL) activity, including OspF from Shigella and SpvC from Salmonella.
