Bacteria utilise specialised protein secretion systems to interact with host organisms,
competitor bacteria, and the environment. The Type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a versatile …

Bacteria with two cell membranes (diderms) have evolved complex systems for protein
secretion. These systems were extensively studied in some model bacteria, but the …

Bacterial type VI secretion systems (T6SSs) are molecular weapons designed to deliver
toxic effectors into prey cells. These nanomachines have an important role in inter-bacterial …

The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a bacterial nanomachine used to inject effectors into
prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells and is thus involved in both host manipulation and …

The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a widespread molecular weapon deployed by many
Proteobacteria to target effectors/toxins into both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. We report …
