“…Among them, the Gramnegative bacteria use a variety of protein secretion systems such as type I secretion system (T1SS) (García-Bayona et al, 2017, type IV secretion system (T4SS) (Souza et al, 2015;Bayer-Santos et al, 2019), contact-dependent inhibition (CDI; belongs to type V secretion system) (Aoki et al, 2005(Aoki et al, , 2010, and type VI secretion system (T6SS) (LeRoux et al, 2012;Basler et al, 2013) as antibacterial weapons. Bacteria that produce and deliver protein toxins, the effectors, through secretion systems to kill other bacteria are attacker cells, and the attacked cells are the recipient cells (Costa et al, 2015;Filloux and Sagfors, 2015). Attacker cells also produce cognate immunity proteins to neutralize effectors to prevent self-intoxication (Alteri and Mobley, 2016;Lien and Lai, 2017).…”
