Abstract excerpt
Type 1 secretion systems (T1SS) are present in a wide range of Gram-negative bacteria and are involved in the secretion of diverse substrates such as proteases, lipases, and hemophores. T1SS consist of three proteins: an inner membrane ABC (ATP binding cassette) protein, a periplasmic adaptor, and an outer membrane channel of the TolC family. Assembly of the tripartite complex is transient and induced upon...
