Quorum-sensing- and type VI secretion-mediated spatio-temporal cell death drives genetic diversity in <i>Vibrio cholerae</i>

2022-08-09

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Bacterial colonies composed of genetically identical individuals can diversify to yield variant cells with distinct genotypes. Variant outgrowth manifests as sectors. Here, we show that Type 6 secretion system (T6SS)-driven cell death in Vibrio cholerae colonies imposes a selective pressure for the emergence of variant strains that can evade T6SS-mediated killing. T6SS-mediated cell death occurs...
