Abstract excerpt
Bacterial type IV secretion systems (T4SS) are a highly diversified but evolutionarily related family of macromolecule transporters that can secrete proteins and DNA into the extracellular medium or into target cells. They have been long known to play a fundamental role in bacterial conjugation and virulence of several species. It was recently shown that a subtype of T4SS harboured by the plant pathogenic bacteriu...
