“…The export apparatus resides within the inner membrane ring and is formed by five highly conserved proteins, named EscR, EscS, EscT, EscU, and EscV (Moraes, Spreter, & Strynadka, ). The cytoplasmic side of the basal body is associated to a ring‐shaped oligomeric structure (EscQ and EscK), which functions as a substrate recognition platform, and provides a docking site for the ATPase complex (EscN, EscO, and EscL) (Andrade, Pardo, Espinosa, Perez‐Hernandez, & Gonzalez‐Pedrajo, ; Biemans‐Oldehinkel, Sal‐Man, Deng, Foster, & Finlay, ; Romo‐Castillo et al., ; Soto et al., ; Zarivach et al., ). Moreover, the extracellular part of the injectisome comprises a 23 nm in length needle‐like structure (EscF), which is extended by a long filament (EspA) (Knutton et al., ; Monjaras Feria et al., ; Ogino et al., ; Sekiya et al., ; Wilson, Shaw, Daniell, Knutton, & Frankel, ).…”
