Funded Activity Summary

Mechanism of action of a novel multifunctional bacterial secretion system. This project aims to examine the functional role of holin/lysin secretion systems in the complex lifestyles of important animal bacterial pathogens. This project will generate new knowledge in how bacteria interact with each other, the environment or their hosts through the secretion of proteins or other particles. The results of this research will provide a deeper understanding of the multifunctional roles that these unusual secretion systems play and how they contribute to niche adaptation and disease. New insights will lead to identifying targets for future veterinary disease interventions or biotechnological applications.
