Genetic Dissection of the Type VI Secretion System in <italic toggle="yes">Acinetobacter</italic> and Identification of a Novel Peptidoglycan Hydrolase, TagX, Required for Its Biogenesis
ABSTRACT The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a widespread secretory apparatus produced by Gram-negative bacteria that has emerged as a potent mediator of antibacterial activity during interbacterial interactions. Most Acinetobacter species produce a genetically conserved T6SS, although the expres...
