<i>Vibrio cholerae</i> Type VI Secretion System Auxiliary Cluster 3 is a Pandemic-associated Mobile Genetic Element
2019-12-08
Abstract excerpt
All sequenced Vibrio cholerae isolates encode a contact-dependent type VI secretion system (T6SS) in three loci that terminate in a toxic effector and cognate immunity protein (E/I) pair, allowing for competitor killing and clonal expansion in aquatic environments and the host gut. Recent studies have demonstrated variability in the toxic effectors produced by different V. cholerae strains and the propensity for...
