Mycobacterial type VII secretion systems
Biol Chem. 2023 Jun 7. doi: 10.1515/hsz-2022-0350. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMycobacteria, such as the pathogen M. tuberculosis, utilize up to five paralogous type VII secretion systems to transport proteins across their cell envelope. Since these proteins associate in pairs that depend on each other for transport to a different extent, the secretion pathway to the bacterial surface remained challenging to address. Structural characterization of the inner-membrane embedded secretion machineries along with recent advances on the substrates' co-dependencies for transport allow for the first time more detailed and testabl...
