Bacterial Defense against the Type VI Secretion System

Trends in Microbiology, 2021
Bacteria have evolved systems dedicated to interbacterial competition. Here we highlight defenses utilized by Gram-negative cells against type VI secretion system (T6SS)-wielding competitors, including physical barriers, genetically encoded antidotes, and stress responses.

Type VI secretion system baseplate

Nature Microbiology, 2018
Bacteria employ a specialized weapon known as the type VI secretion system to defend themselves from competing organisms. A new study reveals the molecular architecture of the type VI secretion system and highlights conserved mechanistic similarities with contractile phage tails.

Identification of type VI secretion systems in Moritella viscosa

Veterinary Microbiology, 2012
The study describes the identification of type VI secretion systems (T6SSs) in Moritella viscosa, the aetiological agent of winter ulcer disease. Despite the availability of commercial vaccines, M. viscosa causes significant financial losses in salmonid farming.

Expression, secretion and bactericidal activity of type VI secretion system in Vibrio anguillarum

Archives of Microbiology, 2016
The type VI secretion system (T6SS) was recently shown to modulate quorum sensing and the stress response in Vibrio anguillarum serotype O1 strain NB10. It is not known whether there is a functionally active T6SS in other serotypes of V. anguillarum. Here, homologues to T6SS cluster VtsEFGH and hemolysin-coregulated protein (Hcp)-encoding genes were ...
