The type III needle and the damage done.
- Abstract:
-
Many Gram-negative pathogens translocate virulence proteins directly into host cells using a type III secretion system. This complex secretion machinery is composed of approximately 25 different proteins that assemble to span both bacterial membranes, and contact the host cell to form a direct channel between the bacterial and host cell cytoplasms. Assembly of the system and efficient secretion of virulence proteins through this apparatus require specific chaperones. Although the machinery is...
