Genomic analysis of Salmonella isolated from surface water and animal sources in Chile reveals new T6SS effector protein candidates

Type VI Secretion Systems (T6SS), widely distributed in Gram-negative bacteria, contribute to interbacterial competition and pathogenesis through the translocation of effector proteins to target cells. Salmonella harbor 5 pathogenicity islands encoding T6SS (SPI-6, SPI-19, SPI-20, SPI-21 and SPI-22)...
