VgrG2 of type VI secretion system 2 of Vibrio parahaemolyticus induces autophagy in macrophages
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015 Type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a macromolecular transenvelope machine encoded within the genomes of several proteobacteria species. Vibrio parahaemolyticus contains two putative T6SS systems, VpT6SS1 and VpT6SS2, both contributing to adherence to ...

Acinetobacter type VI secretion system comprises a non-canonical membrane complex.
PLoS Pathogens, 2023 A. baumannii can rapidly acquire new resistance mechanisms and persist on abiotic surface, enabling the colonization of asymptomatic human host. In Acinetobacter the type VI secretion system (T6SS) is involved in twitching, surface motility and is used ...

The Type VI secretion system deploys anti-fungal effectors against microbial competitors
Nature Microbiology, 2018 Interactions between bacterial and fungal cells shape many polymicrobial communities. Bacteria elaborate diverse strategies to interact and compete with other organisms, including the deployment of protein secretion systems. The type VI secretion system (

The type VI secretion system: a tubular story [PDF]
The EMBO Journal, 2009 The molecular mechanism by which proteins are secreted in gram-negative bacteria is supported by nanomachines called type I to type VI secretion systems (T1SS to T6SS). Previous data suggested that the ClpV ATPase energizes the transport of Hcp and VgrG proteins through the T6SS secretion channel.

The rise of the Type VI secretion system [PDF]
F1000Prime Reports, 2013 Bacterial cells have developed multiple strategies to communicate with their surrounding environment. The intracellular compartment is separated from the milieu by a relatively impermeable cell envelope through which small molecules can passively diffuse, while larger macromolecules, such as proteins, can be actively transported.
