Bacterial competition systems share a domain required for inner membrane transport of the bacteriocin pyocin G from Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Bacteria exploit a variety of attack strategies to gain dominance within ecological niches. Prominent among these are contact-dependent inhibition (CDI), type VI secretion (T6SS), and bacteriocins. The cytotoxic endpoint of these systems is often the delivery of a nuclease to the cytosol. How such n...
