Secretin interactions in the type II secretion system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
PhDThe type II secretion system (T2SS) is the major terminal branch of the general secretory pathway. It is composed of 12-15 proteins, most in multiple copies, and spans the inner and outer membranes of Gram-negative bacteria.

The Francisella Type VI Secretion System [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2018
Francisella tularensisis subsp. tularensis is an intracellular bacterial pathogen and the causative agent of the life-threatening zoonotic disease tularemia. The Francisella Pathogenicity Island encodes a large secretion apparatus, known as a Type VI Secretion System (T6SS), which is essential for Francisella to escape from its phagosome and multiply ...

Diversification of the Type VI Secretion System in Agrobacteria

open access: yesmBio, 2021
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.

Type VI secretion systems in plant-associated bacteria. [PDF]

open access: yesEnviron Microbiol, 2018
Summary The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a bacterial nanomachine used to inject effectors into prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells and is thus involved in both host manipulation and interbacterial competition. The T6SS is widespread among Gram‐negative bacteria, mostly within the Proteobacterium Phylum.

Type VI secretion system in Pseudomonas aeruginosa: secretion and multimerization of VgrG proteins. [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of biological chemistry, 2011
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a Gram-negative bacterium causing chronic infections in cystic fibrosis patients. Such infections are associated with an active type VI secretion system (T6SS), which consists of about 15 conserved components, including the AAA+ ATPase, ClpV. The T6SS secretes two categories of proteins, VgrG and Hcp.

Marker for type VI secretion system effectors [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2014
Significance The recently discovered type VI secretion system (T6SS) is used by Gram-negative bacteria to deliver effector proteins into both eukaryotic and prokaryotic neighboring cells to mediate virulence and competition, respectively.

Structure and Regulation of the Type VI Secretion System [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Microbiology, 2012
The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a complex and widespread gram-negative bacterial export pathway with the capacity to translocate protein effectors into a diversity of target cell types. Current structural models of the T6SS indicate that the apparatus is composed of at least two complexes, a dynamic bacteriophage-like structure and a cell ...

Comparative Genomics of Aeromonas hydrophila Secretion Systems and Mutational Analysis of hcp1 and vgrG1 Genes From T6SS

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Virulent Aeromonas hydrophila causes severe motile Aeromonas septicemia in warmwater fishes. In recent years, channel catfish farming in the U.S.A. and carp farming in China have been affected by virulent A.

Distribution and diversity of bacterial secretion systems across metagenomic datasets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Bacteria can manipulate their surrounding environment through the secretion of proteins into other living organisms and into the extracellular milieu. In Gram stain negative bacteria this process is mediated by different types of secretion systems from ...

Phage tail-like particles are versatile bacterial nanomachines – A mini-review

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Research, 2019
Type VI secretion systems and tailocins, two bacterial phage tail-like particles, have been reported to foster interbacterial competition. Both nanostructures enable their producer to kill other bacteria competing for the same ecological niche ...
