A disordered region in the EvpP protein from the type VI secretion system of Edwardsiella tarda is essential for EvpC binding.

Abstract excerpt

The type VI secretion system (T6SS) of pathogenic bacteria plays important roles in both virulence and inter-bacterial competitions. The effectors of T6SS are presumed to be transported either by attaching to the tip protein or by interacting with HcpI (haemolysin corregulated protein 1). In Edwardsiella tarda PPD130/91, the T6SS secreted protein EvpP (E. tarda virulent protein P) is found to be essential for...
