Meticulous control of the T3SS of Yersinia is essential for full virulence

Meticulous control of the T3SS of Yersinia is essential for full virulence

The type III secretion system (T3SS) of pathogenic Yersinia pseudotuberculosis is involved in virulence. The syringe-like secretion system spans both bacterial membranes and is responsible for the ability of Yersinia to transfer toxic proteins (Yop proteins) into the eukaryotic target cell. The T3SS...
