TYPE

Chemical

DEFINITION

A highly conserved, multicomponent secretion system found in many Gram-negative bacteria that are plant and animal pathogens. This system transports effector molecules directly from the cytoplasm to the cell surface when the pathogen comes in close contact with the host cell. It is evolutionarily related to the bacterial flagellum.
Sistema de secreción de múltiples componentes y altamente conservado que se encuentra en muchas bacterias gram-negativas que son patógenos de plantas y animales. Este sistema transporta moléculas efectoras directamente desde el citoplasma de la superficie celular cuando el patógeno entra en contacto estrecho con la célula huésped. En términos evolutivos, se relaciona con los cilios de las bacterias.
