Bacterial Type III Secretion Systems and their Associationwith Virulence
Bakteriálne sekrečné systémy typu III a ich vzťahk virulencii
Článok podáva stručný prehľad novších poznatkov o sekrečných systémoch typu III (SST systémy)a ich spojení s virulenciou u gramnegatívnych baktérií. Uvádza informácie o substrátoch SST systémov(efektorové bielkoviny), o signálnych mechanizmoch (sekrečné signály),ďalej o štruktúrnychzložkách sekrečného systému a ich genetickej determinácii.
Klíčová slova:
sekrečné systémy typu III – virulencia – bakteriálne živočíšne a rastlinné patogény.

Overview
Newer data on type III secretion systems (SST systems) associated with virulence in gramnegativebacteria are summarized. The focus is on substrates of SST systems (effector proteins), recognitionof type III secretion signals, structural components of SST systems and their genetic determination.
Key words:
type III secretion systems – virulence – animal and plant bacterial pathogens.
