Our paper on how a conveyor belt-associated protein of T9SS-driven gliding bacteria acts as a molecular switch, reversing T9SS rotation to fine-tune movement - like a smart conveyor or biological snowmobile adapting to changing terrain is out now in @mbio.bsky.social journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/...
The type 9 secretion system (T9SS) is fundamental to bacterial gliding motility, pathogenesis,
and surface colonization. Our findings reveal that the C-terminal region of the conveyor
belt-associated ...
