Prediction of type III secretion signals in genomes of gram-negative bacteria.

BACKGROUND:Pathogenic bacteria infecting both animals as well as plants use various mechanisms to transport virulence factors across their cell membranes and channel these proteins into the infected host cell. The type III secretion system represents such a mechanism. Proteins transported via this p...
