Dissecting the puncturing device of the Type VI Secretion System : role of Hcp, VgrG and PAAR proteins in assembly and secretion of effectors

The Type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a macromolecular machinery, widespread in Gram negative bacteria, which is used to deliver toxic proteins (“effectors”) directly into target eukaryotic or prokaryotic cells. As a result, this system plays a crucial role both in direct pathogenicity and in inter...
