Two Type VI Secretion Systems in <i>Vibrio coralliilyticus</i> RE22Sm exhibit differential target specificity for bacteria prey and oyster larvae
2021-05-28
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Vibrio coralliilyticus is an extracellular bacterial pathogen and a causative agent of vibriosis in larval oysters. Host mortality rates can quickly reach 100% during vibriosis outbreaks in oyster hatcheries. Type VI Secretion Systems (T6SS) are rapidly polymerizing, contact dependent injection apparatus for prey cell intoxication and play important roles in pathogenesis. DNA sequencing of V. c...
