The Role of the Small Export Apparatus Protein, SctS, in the Activity of the Type III Secretion System

Many gram-negative pathogens utilize a protein complex, termed the type III secretion system (T3SS), to inject virulence factors from their cytoplasm directly into the host cell. An export apparatus that is formed by five putative integral membrane proteins (SctR/S/T/U/V), resides at the center of t...
