CONSERVED CHAPERONE DOMAIN FOR TYPE VI SECRETION SYSTEM

摘要

The present invention provides a method for identifying a T6SS effector as well as the corresponding T6SS effector immunity protein. The present invention also provides a composition and uses there of that include T6SS effector and T6SS effector immunity protein that are identified using the method of the invention. In particular, the method of the invention utilizes a conserved domain sequence of T6SS of Gram-negative bacteria to identify a T6SS effector and its corresponding immunity protein.
