The Campylobacter jejuni Type VI Secretion System Enhances the Oxidative Stress Response and Host Colonization

The role of the Type VI secretion system (T6SS) in Campylobacter jejuni is poorly understood despite an increasing prevalence of the T6SS in recent C. jejuni isolates in humans and chickens. The T6SS is a contractile secretion machinery capable of delivering effectors that can play a role in host co...
