T346Hunter: a novel web-based tool for the prediction of type III, type IV and type VI secretion systems in bacterial genomes. [PDF]
T346Hunter (Type Three, Four and Six secretion system Hunter) is a web-based tool for the identification and localisation of type III, type IV and type VI secretion systems (T3SS, T4SS and T6SS, respectively) clusters in bacterial genomes.

TLR1-induced chemokine production is critical for mucosal immunity against Yersinia enterocolitica. [PDF]
Our gastrointestinal tract is a portal of entry for a number of bacteria and viruses. Thus, this tissue must develop ways to induce antigen-specific T cell and antibody responses quickly.

Structure of a translocation signal domain mediating conjugative transfer by Type IV secretion systems [PDF]
Relaxases are proteins responsible for the transfer of plasmid and chromosomal DNA from one bacterium to another during conjugation. They covalently react with a specific phosphodiester bond within DNA origin of transfer sequences, forming a nucleo ...

Type III secretion systems (T3SSs) are essential for motility and virulence in many bacterial pathogens. Proteins destined for the flagellar T3SS contain at least two export signals in their N-terminal D0 domain.

Ca2+ - Induced Structural Change of Multi-Domain Collagen Binding Segments of Collagenases ColG and ColH from Hathewaya histolytica [PDF]
Hathewaya histolytica, previously renamed as Clostridium histolyticum, secretes at least two collagenases, ColH and ColG, that allow for degradation of extracellular matrices of animal tissue.

Regulation and inhibition of type III secretion systems in plant pathogenic bacteria
Type III secretion systems (T3SS) are syringe-like apparatuses acting as protein transport nanomachines found in most Gram-negative bacterial pathogens. They can inject effector proteins into the host cell cytoplasm, crossing the host cell membrane, and ...

Migration of Type III Secretion System Transcriptional Regulators Links Gene Expression to Secretion
Many plant-pathogenic bacteria of considerable economic importance rely on type III secretion systems (T3SSs) of the Hrc-Hrp 1 family to subvert their plant hosts.
