Pathways of Protein Secretion in Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes: Molecular Mechanisms, Biological Functions, and Therapeutic Opportunities

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
This graphical abstract delineates noncanonical protein secretion systems across eukaryotes and prokaryotes. Eukaryotic UcPS covers four ER–Golgi bypass pathways, enabling rapid leaderless protein export via direct transmembrane translocation or vesicle‐mediated release.

Xenorhabdus bovienii strain jolietti uses a type 6 secretion system to kill closely related Xenorhabdus strains [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2020
ABSTRACTXenorhabdus bovienii strain jolietti (XBJ) is a Gram-negative bacterium that interacts with several organisms as a part of its life cycle. It is a beneficial symbiont of nematodes, a potent pathogen of a wide range of soil-dwelling insects and also has the ability to kill soil- and insect-associated microbes.

A genome‐integrated CRISPR/Cas12a system enables efficient genetic engineering in Xenorhabdus budapestensis XBD8

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, Volume 3, Issue 2, June 2026.
We developed a genome‐integrated CRISPR/Cas12a system for Xenorhabdus budapestensis XBD8, which enables precise deletion or replacement of DNA fragments ranging from 379 to 45,168 bp, with a success rate exceeding 90%. Application of this tool for the dynamic regulation of fabclavine‐8 biosynthesis resulted in a 1.90‐fold increase in production ...

Characterization of novel Xenorhabdus-Steinernema associations and identification of novel antimicrobial compounds produced by Xenorhabdus khoisanae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Thesis (MSc)--Stellenbosch University, 2018.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Xenorhabdus bacteria are closely associated with Steinernema nematodes. This is a species-specific association.

Engineering Pseudomonas protegens as a Targeted Antifungal‐Effector Delivery Chassis via Heterologous Type III Secretion System Reconstitution

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
A heterologous T3SS turns Pseudomonas protegens Pf‐5 into a programmable molecular syringe that delivers Bg9562 into Fusarium hyphae, suppresses fungal pathogens, enhances rhizosphere colonization and protects tomato plants from wilt. This modular platform offers a transferable strategy for next‐generation fungal biocontrol.

The insect pathogenic bacterium Xenorhabdus innexi has attenuated virulence in multiple insect model hosts yet encodes a potent mosquitocidal toxin

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2017
Background Xenorhabdus innexi is a bacterial symbiont of Steinernema scapterisci nematodes, which is a cricket-specialist parasite and together the nematode and bacteria infect and kill crickets. Curiously, X.

A systematic review on research trends and commercialised entomopathogenic nematodes: A global perspective

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 298-313, May 2026.
Out of 136 identified EPNs, only 18 (8 Steinernema and 6 Heterorhabditis) are commercialised globally, highlighting a major gap between discovery and application. High production costs and inconsistent field efficacy are the leading obstacles to the widespread commercialisation of EPN‐based biocontrol products.

New insight into diversity in the genus Xenorhabdus, including the description of ten novel species

open access: yes, 2006
Correspondance: tailliez@univ-montp2.frInternational audienceWe investigated the diversity of a collection of 76 Xenorhabdus strains, isolated from at least 27 species of Steinernema nematodes and collected in 32 countries, using three complementary ...

Interspecific competition between entomopathogenic nematodes (Steinernema) is modified by their bacterial symbionts (Xenorhabdus)

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2006
Background Symbioses between invertebrates and prokaryotes are biological systems of particular interest in order to study the evolution of mutualism.
