Vibrio cholerae secretion system of the type VI [PDF]
The review summarizes literature data on the Vibrio cholerae secretion system of the 6th type. This system is a contact-dependent macromolecular mechanism through which bacteria translocate toxic effector proteins into target cells.

Diversification of the Type VI Secretion System in Agrobacteria
The T6SS is used by several taxa of Gram-negative bacteria to secrete toxic effector proteins to attack others. Diversification of effector collections shapes bacterial interactions and impacts the health of hosts and ecosystems in which bacteria reside.

The Type VI Secretion System: A Dynamic System for Bacterial Communication?
Numerous studies in Gram-negative bacteria have focused on the Type VISecretion Systems (T6SSs), Quorum Sensing (QS), and social behavior, such as in biofilms.

Mechanisms of Pseudomonas aeruginosa resistance to type VI secretion system attacks [PDF]
The Type VI Secretion System (T6SS) is a molecular nanomachine that injects toxic effector proteins into the environment or neighboring cells, playing an important role in interbacterial competition and host antagonism during infection.

An interbacterial DNA deaminase toxin directly mutagenizes surviving target populations
When bacterial cells come in contact, antagonism mediated by the delivery of toxins frequently ensues. The potential for such encounters to have long-term beneficial consequences in recipient cells has not been investigated. Here, we examined the effects

The Missing Pieces: The Role of Secretion Systems in Campylobacter jejuni Virulence
Campylobacter jejuni is likely the most common bacterial cause of gastroenteritis worldwide, responsible for millions of cases of inflammatory diarrhea characterized by severe abdominal cramps and blood in the stool. Further, C.

Vibrio parahaemolyticus T6SS2 effector repertoires
All strains of the marine bacterium Vibrio parahaemolyticus harbor a type VI secretion system (T6SS) named T6SS2, suggesting that this system plays an important role in the life cycle of this emerging pathogen. Although T6SS2 was recently shown to play a
