The type II secretion system (T2SS) is a multi‐protein complex used by many bacteria to
move substrates across their cell membrane. Substrates released into the environment …

Secretion systems are employed by bacteria to transport macromolecules across
membranes without compromising their integrities. Processes including virulence …

The bacterial T ight ad herence S ecretion S ystem (TadSS) assembles surface pili that drive
cell adherence, biofilm formation and bacterial predation. The structure and mechanism of …

The type II secretion system (T2SS) is a multiprotein envelope-spanning assembly that
translocates a wide range of virulence factors, enzymes and effectors through the outer …

Natural transformation is the process by which bacteria take up genetic material from their
environment and integrate it into their genome by homologous recombination. It represents …

Secretins are outer membrane (OM) channels found in various bacterial nanomachines that
secrete or assemble large extracellular structures. High-resolution 3D structures of type 2 …

To exchange and communicate with their surroundings, bacteria have evolved multiple
active and passive mechanisms for trans-envelope transport. Among the pore-forming …

Protein folding is usually slowed‐down at low temperatures, and thus low‐temperature
expression is an effective strategy to improve the soluble yield of aggregation‐prone …

Gram-negative bacteria have developed several nanomachine channels known as type II,
III, IV and VI secretion systems that enable export of effector proteins/toxins from the cytosol …

Aeromonas hydrophila B11 strain was isolated from diseased Anguilla japonica, which had
caused severe gill ulcers in farmed eel, causing huge economic losses. EnvZ‐OmpR is a …
