A T6SS in the coral pathogen Vibrio coralliilyticus secretes an arsenal of anti-eukaryotic effectors and contributes to virulence

S. Mass, H. Cohen, M. Gerlic, B. Ushijima, J. C. van Kessel, E. Bosis, D. Salomon

This study identifies two temperature-regulated T6SSs in Vibrio coralliilyticus, revealing their roles in bacterial competition and host toxicity, with T6SS2 secreting nine novel anti-eukaryotic toxins.

Osmotic stress response of the coral and oyster pathogen Vibrio coralliilyticus: acquisition of catabolism gene clusters for the compatible solute and signaling molecule myo-inositol

K. Boas Lichty, R. M. Loughran, B. Ushijima, G. P. Richards, E. F. Boyd

This study identifies myo-inositol catabolism gene clusters in Vibrio coralliilyticus and related bacteria, showing their role in osmotic stress response and potential impact on coral-algae symbiosis.

The dynamic hypoosmotic response of Vibrio cholerae relies on the mechanosensitive channel MscS

K. Ramsey, M. Britt, J. Maramba, B. Ushijima, E. Moller, A. Anishkin, C. Hase, S. Sukharev

This study investigates the role of MscS and MscL channels in Vibrio cholerae's hypoosmotic response, showing MscS is critical for osmolyte release and survival.
