A trans-kingdom T6SS effector induces the fragmentation of the mitochondrial network and activates innate immune receptor NLRX1 to promote infection

Bacteria can affect cellular processes in other bacteria and in eukaryotic cells by injecting effectors using a type VI secretion system (T6SS). Here, Sá-Pessoa et al. describe how a T6SS effector from the bacterial pathogen Klebsiella pneumoniae triggers the fragmentation of the mitochondrial netwo...
