Systematic Identification and Analysis of Acinetobacter baumannii Type VI Secretion System Effector and Immunity Components

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Many Gram-negative bacteria use a type VI secretion system (T6SS) for microbial warfare and/or host manipulation. Acinetobacter baumannii is an important nosocomial pathogen and many A.

Determining the role of temperature on vgrG promoter expression in Burkholderia cepacia

, 2023
Burkholderia cepacia is a bacterial species that causes infection in plants and animals. Recent work in our lab has focused on a specific strain of B. cepacia that has a mutated vgrG gene.

Mounting, structure and autocleavage of a type VI secretion-associated Rhs polymorphic toxin

Nature Communications, 2021
Rearrangement hot spots (Rhs) proteins are bacterial polymorphic toxin systems. Here, the authors show that Rhs1 forms a complex with the Type VI secretion system (T6SS) spike protein VgrG and the EagR chaperone.

Structural basis for loading and inhibition of a bacterial T6 SS phospholipase effector by the VgrG spike [PDF]

, 2020
International audienceThe bacterial type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a macromolecular machine that injects effectors into prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.

Crystal structure and self-interaction of the type VI secretion tail-tube protein from enteroaggregative Escherichia coli. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a widespread machine used by bacteria to control their environment and kill or disable bacterial species or eukaryotes through toxin injection.

VfqI-VfqR quorum sensing circuit modulates type VI secretion system VflT6SS2 in Vibrio fluvialis

Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2022
V. fluvialis is an emerging foodborne pathogen and could cause cholera-like gastroenteritis syndrome and poses a potential threat to public health. VflT6SS2 is a functionally active type VI secretion system (T6SS) in V.

Pseudomonas fluorescens F113 type VI secretion systems mediate bacterial killing and adaption to the rhizosphere microbiome

Scientific Reports, 2021
The genome of Pseudomonas fluorescens F113, a model rhizobacterium and a plant growth-promoting agent, encodes three putative type VI secretion systems (T6SSs); F1-, F2- and F3-T6SS.
