Type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a newly found secretion system, which distributes widely in Gram-negative bacteria. It consists of structural proteins (constitute secretion system), translocated proteins (form transmembrane pipe structure), secretory proteins and a few auxiliary function proteins for secretion systems. T6SS can enhance the adaptability of bacteria on the environment,mediate pathogenicity to host cells and has some other functions.
VI型分泌系统(T6SS)是一种新发现的分泌系统,广泛分布于革兰氏阴性菌中。它由结构蛋白(构成分泌系统)、转运蛋白(形成跨膜管道结构)、分泌蛋白以及一些分泌系统的辅助功能蛋白组成。T6SS可增强细菌对环境的适应性,介导对宿主细胞的致病性,并具有一些其他功能。
