Breaching the cell-envelope barriers of gram-positive and fungal microbes by a type VI secretion system in <i>Acidovorax citrulli</i>

2021-05-31

Abstract excerpt

The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a double-tubular toxin-injection nanomachine widely found in gram-negative human and plant pathogens. The current model depicts that the T6SS spear-like Hcp tube is powered by the contraction of an outer sheath to drill through the envelope of a neighboring cell, achieving cytosol to cytosol delivery. However, gram-positive bacteria seem to be impenetrable to such T6SS action...
