Whole genome sequence analysis reveals broad distribution of the RtxA type 1 secretion system and four novel type 1 secretion systems throughout the <i>Legionella</i> genus

Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Type 1 secretion systems (T1SSs) are broadly distributed among bacteria and translocate effectors with diverse function across the bacterial cell membrane. Legionella pneumophila , the species most commonly associated with Legionellosis, encodes a T1SS at the lssXYZABD locus which is responsible for the secretion of the virulence factor RtxA. Many investigations have failed to detect lssD , t...
