Systematic Identification and Analysis of Acinetobacter baumannii Type VI Secretion System Effector and Immunity Components

Many Gram-negative bacteria use a type VI secretion system (T6SS) for microbial warfare and/or host manipulation. Acinetobacter baumannii is an important nosocomial pathogen and many A. baumannii strains utilize a T6SS to deliver toxic effector proteins to surrounding bacterial cells. These toxic ef...
