Function[SPAO_SALTY] Involved in a secretory pathway responsible for the surface presentation of determinants needed for the entry of Salmonella species into mammalian cells. [ORGB_SALTY] Oxygen-regulated protein required for bacterial internalization. Publication Abstract from PubMedTranslocating proteins across the double membrane of Gram-negative bacteria, type III secretion systems (T3SS) occur in two evolutionarily related forms: injectisomes, delivering virulence factors into host cells, and the flagellar system, secreting the polymeric filament used for motility. While both systems share related elements of a cytoplasmic sorting platform that facilitates the hierarchical secretion of protein substrates, its assembly and regulation remain unclear. Here we describe a module mediating the assembly of the sorting platform in both secretion systems, and elucidate the structural basis for segregation of homologous components among these divergent T3SS subtypes sharing a common cytoplasmic milieu. These results provide a foundation for the subtype-specific assembly of T3SS sorting platforms and will support further mechanistic analysis and anti-virulence drug design. A common assembly module in injectisome and flagellar type III secretion sorting platforms.,Notti RQ, Bhattacharya S, Lilic M, Stebbins CE Nat Commun. 2015 May 21;6:7125. doi: 10.1038/ncomms8125.
