Abstract: Type VI secretion systems (T6SS) plays a crucial role in Vibrio cholerae mediated pathogenicity. Tip of T6SS is homologous to gp27/gp5 complex or tail spike of T4 bacteriophage. VgrG-1 of V. cholerae T6SS is unusual… read more here.

Abstract: The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a contractile nanomachine used by many Gram-negative bacteria to inject toxic effectors into adjacent cells. The delivered effectors are bound to the components of a puncturing apparatus containing… read more here.
