The T6SS is a widespread nanoweapon deployed by #bacteria, but why is it deployed heterogeneously? @cascaleslab.bsky.social &co show that #Ecoli adopt distinct #T6SS attacker "ON" & defender "OFF" roles to optimize survival, a key strategy in microbial warfare @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/3S5dL45
Very happy to see the second story from my PhD out in @currentbiology.bsky.social
An exciting project where we explored the roles of secretion systems and gliding motility in predatory behavior in F. johnsoniae.

Paillat et al. show that Flavobacterium johnsoniae combines type VI and type IX secretion
systems with gliding motility to efficiently kill diverse bacterial competitors. They
demonstrate that nutrien...

Happy to share the last work of Jonas Desjardins, identifying and characterizing a novel Rhs NAD(P) glycohydrolase delivered by the #T6SS of the major cosmetic contaminant, Pluralibacter gergoviae.

Happy to share the last publication of @bobytaillefer.bsky.social, showing that #T6SS heterogeneity is an attenuation strategy to optimizes the trade-off between competitive killing and survival.
Highly recommended “Secretion Days”, to be held in Marseille, France, on October 8 and 9, 2026. This year's keynote speaker is Wilbert Bitter: orcid.org/0000-0001-83...
Happy to share the last work of @jmartinkus.bsky.social, led by @dukasju.bsky.social
Immunity arrays associated with Rhs and CDI toxins and linked to a novel genetic element (XPC cassette) confer protection against competitors. @currentbiology.bsky.social
Kudos !!
