Summary Introduction
To review:
The mechanism of secretion of type â…¡ and type â…¢ protein secretion systems.
Introduction:
Bacteial secretion systems refers to the protein complexes located on the cell membrane of the bacteria. These protein complexes secrete virulence factors that are mostly proteins. The secretion of protein is nothing but the movement of protein outside the cytoplasm. There are protein secretion systems that move the protein out of the cell. They are of three types, type â…¡, type â…¢, and type â…£.
