Identification and Characterization of EvpQ, a Novel T6SS Effector Encoded on a Mobile Genetic Element in Edwardsiella piscicida

In this study, a hypothetical protein (ORF02740) secreted by Edwardsiella piscicida was identified. We renamed the ORF02740 protein as EvpQ, which is encoded by a mobile genetic element (MGE) in E. piscicida genome. The evpQ gene is spaced by 513 genes from type VI secretion system (T6SS) gene clust...
