Molecular bases for the loss of type VI secretion system activity during enteroaggregative <i>E. coli</i> experimental evolution
2025-02-09
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a nanoweapon deployed by Gram-negative to inject effectors into target cells and hence involved in pathogenesis and bacterial competition. While T6SS gene clusters are found in all recently isolated commensals or pathogenic Escherichia coli strains, they are absent from classical laboratory strains. These E. coli strains, which have been used since decade...
