Bcr4 Is a Chaperone for the Inner Rod Protein in the Bordetella Type III Secretion System

ABSTRACT Bordetella bronchiseptica injects virulence proteins called effectors into host cells via a type III secretion system (T3SS) conserved among many Gram-negative bacteria. Small proteins called chaperones are required to stabilize some T3SS components or localize them to the T3SS machinery. I...
