From prediction to function: Current practices and challenges towards the functional characterization of type III effectors

The type III secretion system (T3SS) is a well-studied pathogenicity determinant of many bacteria through which effectors (T3Es) are translocated into the host cell, where they exercise a wide range of functions to deceive the host cell’s immunity and to establish a niche. Here we look at the differ...
