In-situ structures of the Legionella Dot/Icm T4SS identify the DotA-IcmX complex as the gatekeeper for effector translocation
The Dot/Icm machine in Legionella pneumophila is one of the most versatile type IV secretion systems (T4SSs), with a remarkable capacity to translocate over 330 different effector proteins across the ...

Outer membrane tube formation by Francisella novicida involves extensive envelope modifications and is linked with type VI secretion and alterations to the host phagosomal membrane | mBio
Francisella tularensis is an intracellular bacterial pathogen that causes the zoonotic disease tularemia. Following uptake by host cells, the bacteria rapidly escape the phagosome and replicate intracellularly. In previous studies, we found that ...
