HSI-II Gene Cluster of Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 Encodes a Functional Type VI Secretion System Required for Interbacterial Competition
The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a widespread bacterial nanoweapon used for delivery of toxic proteins into cell targets and contributes to virulence, anti-inflammatory processes, and interbacterial competition. In the model phytopathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst) DC300...
