Capsular polysaccharide restrains type VI secretion in Acinetobacter baumannii

Capsular polysaccharide restrains type VI secretion in Acinetobacter baumannii

The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a sophisticated, contact-dependent nanomachine involved in interbacterial competition. To function effectively, the T6SS must penetrate the membranes of both attacker and target bacteria. Structures associated with the cell envelope, like polysaccharides chains...
