Summary(#br)Type III secretion injectisomes are essential virulence factors for many pathogenic bacteria by mediating the transport of effector proteins into eukaryotic host cells. The secretion conduit of injectisomes is formed by a helical assembly of three hydrophobic proteins (SctR, SctS and Sct...
