| Popis: | Bacteria use a variety of mechanisms to translocate proteins from the cytoplasm, where they are synthesized, to the cell surface or extracellular environment or directly into other cells, where they perform their ultimate functions. Type V secretion systems (T5SS) use β-barrel transporter domains to export passenger domains across the outer membranes of Gram-negative bacteria. Distinct among T5SS are type Vb or two-partner secretion (TPS) systems in which the transporter and passenger are separate proteins, necessitating a mechanism for passenger-translocator recognition in the periplasm and providing the potential for reuse of the translocator. This review describes current knowledge of the TPS translocation mechanism, using Bordetella filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA) and its transporter FhaC as a model. We present the hypothesis that the TPS pathway may be a general mechanism for contact-dependent delivery of toxins to target cells. |
