Comparative Genomics Identifies a Novel Conserved Protein, HpaT, in Proteobacterial Type III Secretion Systems that Do Not Possess the Putative Translocon Protein HrpF [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 Xanthomonas translucens is the causal agent of bacterial leaf streak, the most common bacterial disease of wheat and barley. To cause disease, most xanthomonads depend on a highly conserved type III secretion system, which translocates type III effectors

The Structure of an Injectisome Export Gate Demonstrates Conservation of Architecture in the Core Export Gate between Flagellar and Virulence Type III Secretion Systems [PDF]
mBio, 2019 Export of proteins through type III secretion systems (T3SS) is critical for motility and virulence of many major bacterial pathogens. Proteins are exported through a genetically defined export gate complex consisting of three proteins.

The FliI ATPase couples ATP hydrolysis to substrate switching in bacterial flagellar type-III secretion [PDF]
mBioBacterial flagella are assembled by a specialized type-III secretion system that exports structural subunits in a defined order. While the ATPase FliI is known to couple ATP hydrolysis to substrate translocation, its role in the transition between early ...
