Abstract: Both Gram-negative and Gram-positive organisms harbor systems for delivering toxins to neighboring bacteria upon direct cell contact. These systems, typified by type VI secretion (T6S) and contact-dependent growth inhibition (CDI) systems, are defined by their… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.869278
Abstract: Pseudomonas plecoglossicida is a facultative fish pathogen that possesses three distinct type VI secretion systems (named T6SS-1, T6SS-2, and T6SS-3). Our previous work indicated that only T6SS-2 of P. plecoglossicida mediates interbacterial competition. However, the… read more here.
