Type 3 secretion systems (T3SSs) are used by several pathogenic bacterial species to deliver effector proteins, responsible for the effects of infection, into the target host cells. An MGH research ...
When bacteria such as Salmonella or Yersinia cause fever, diarrhea or abdominal pain, tiny "injection needles" are at work: their type 3 secretion system, or T3SS for short, shoots bacterial virulence ...
