Bacteria have evolved a remarkable array of sophisticated nanomachines to export various
virulence factors across the bacterial cell envelope. In recent years, considerable progress …

One of the most exciting developments in the field of bacterial pathogenesis in recent years
is the discovery that many pathogens utilize complex nanomachines to deliver bacterially …

Inflammasomes are large cytoplasmic complexes that sense microbial infections/danger
molecules and induce caspase-1 activation-dependent cytokine production and …

The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a complex and widespread gram-negative bacterial
export pathway with the capacity to translocate protein effectors into a diversity of target cell …

Vibrio parahaemolyticus, a Gram-negative motile bacterium that inhabits marine and
estuarine environments throughout the world, is a major food-borne pathogen that causes …

Type III secretion systems (T3SSs) are bacterial membrane–embedded nanomachines
designed to export specifically targeted proteins from the bacterial cytoplasm. Secretion …

The bacterial type III secretion system, or injectisome, is a syringe shaped nanomachine
essential for the virulence of many disease causing Gram-negative bacteria. At the core of …

Protein secretion systems are molecular nanomachines used by Gram-negative bacteria to
thrive within their environment. They are used to release enzymes that hydrolyze complex …
