Three small partner proteins facilitate the type VII-dependent secretion of an antibacterial nuclease
10 Oct 2023
Abstract excerpt
ABSTRACT The type VIIb secretion system (T7SSb) is a multisubunit protein export machine found in Gram-positive Bacillota which plays a key role in interbacterial competition. The T7SSb secretes a variety of toxic effector proteins targeting closely related strains; however, the mechanism of secretion and the roles of numerous conserved genes within T7SSb gene clusters remain unknown. EsaD is a nuclease toxin...
