Characterization of the Type VI Secretion System in the Bacterial Pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii
DownloadFall 2016
Antibiotic resistant bacteria that cause hospital-acquired infections are a mounting concern for healthcare systems globally. Multidrug resistant (MDR) Acinetobacter baumannii has emerged as a common cause of nosocomial infections, and some isolates are now pandrug resistant. These infections can...

Intraspecies Antagonistic Interactions Driven by the Type VI Secretion System in Vibrio cholerae
DownloadFall 2020
The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a contact-dependent molecular weapon used by bacteria to transport a variety of effectors into neighbours. Attacked cells must have immunity proteins specific to each incoming effector in order to neutralize their cytotoxic effects. Vibrio cholerae, a...
