General secretion signal for the mycobacterial type VII secretion pathway.

Mycobacterial pathogens use specialized type VII secretion (T7S) systems to transport crucial virulence factors across their unusual cell envelope into infected host cells. These virulence factors lack classical secretion signals and the mechanism of substrate recognition is not well understood. Here we demonstrate that the model T7S substrates PE25/PPE41, which form a heterodimer, are targeted...

Mycosins of the Mycobacterial Type VII ESX Secretion System: the Glue That Holds the Party Together

Since their discovery as important determinants of virulence and growth, the type VII ESX secretion systems (ESX-1 to ESX-5) of slow-growing pathogenic mycobacteria have been the focus of intense scrutiny. Genetic studies have been instrumental in identifying the core components and substrates of these molecular secretion machines and have helped uncover the multifunctional properties of some o...

Structural Insights into the PorK and PorN Components of the Porphyromonas gingivalis Type IX Secretion System

The type IX secretion system (T9SS) has been recently discovered and is specific to Bacteroidetes species. Porphyromonas gingivalis, a keystone pathogen for periodontitis, utilizes the T9SS to transport many proteins including the gingipain virulence factors across the outer membrane and attach them to the cell surface via a sortase-like mechanism. At least 11 proteins have been identified as c...

Structural and Functional Insights into the Pilotin-Secretin Complex of the Type II Secretion System

Gram-negative bacteria secrete virulence factors and assemble fibre structures on their cell surface using specialized secretion systems. Three of these, T2SS, T3SS and T4PS, are characterized by large outer membrane channels formed by proteins called secretins. Usually, a cognate lipoprotein pilot is essential for the assembly of the secretin in the outer membrane. The structures of the piloti...
