Relaxed specificity of BcpB transporters mediates interactions between Burkholderia cepacia complex contact-dependent growth inhibition systems
ABSTRACT Belonging to the two-partner secretion family of proteins, contact-dependent growth inhibition (CDI) systems mediate interbacterial antagonism among closely related Gram-negative bacteria. The toxic portion of a large surface protein, BcpA/CdiA, is delivered to the cytoplasm of neighboring...
