Secretion systems and signal exchange between nitrogen-fixing rhizobia and legumes

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2015
The formation of symbiotic nitrogen-fixing nodules on the roots and/or stem of leguminous plants involves a complex signal exchange between both partners. Since many microorganisms are present in the soil, legumes and rhizobia must recognize and initiate

The Type VI secretion system: a versatile bacterial weapon

open access: yesMicrobiology, 2019
The Type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a protein nanomachine that is widespread in Gram-negative bacteria and is used to translocate effector proteins directly into neighbouring cells. It represents a versatile bacterial weapon that can deliver effectors into distinct classes of target cells, playing key roles in inter-bacterial competition and ...

Presence and absence of type VI secretion systems in bacteria.

open access: yesMicrobiology (Reading, England), 2022
The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a molecular puncturing device that enables Gram-negative bacteria to kill competitors, manipulate host cells and take up nutrients. Who would want to miss such superpowers? Indeed, many studies show how widespread the secretion apparatus is among microbes.
