Extracellular Proteins Involved in Soybean Cultivar-Specific Nodulation Are Associated with Pilus-Like Surface Appendages and Exported by a Type III Protein Secretion System in Sinorhizobium fredii USDA257
Several gram-negative plant and animal pathogenic bacteria have evolved a type III secretion system (TTSS) to deliver effector proteins directly into the host cell cytosol. Sinorhizobium fredii USDA257, a symbiont of soybean and many other legumes, secretes proteins called Nops (nodulation outer pro...
