Type two secretion systems secretins are necessary for exopolymeric slime secretion in cyanobacteria and myxobacteria

D. M. Zuckerman, J. M. T. So, E. Hoiczyk

The paper identifies secretins PilQ/GspD as essential for exopolymeric slime secretion in cyanobacteria and myxobacteria, expanding the known functions of these outer membrane structures.

A repurposed, non-canonical cytochrome c, chaperones calcium binding by PilY1 for type IVa pili formation

M. Herfurth, A. Treuner-Lange, T. Glatter, N. Wittmaack, E. Hoiczyk, A. J. Pierik, L. Sogaard-Andersen

The paper identifies a non-canonical cytochrome c, TfcP, that binds calcium to stabilize PilY1.1, enabling T4aP function across a broader range of calcium concentrations.

Mycobacterium smegmatis expands across surfaces using hydraulic sliding

E. J. G. Pollitt, O. Carnell, E. Hoiczyk, J. Green

This paper identifies a new form of bacterial motility in Mycobacterium smegmatis called hydraulic sliding, where colony expansion occurs through liquid core expansion rather than cell growth.

Structure and function of a novel osmoregulated periplasmic fiber-forming high-molecular-weight carbohydrate of Myxococcus xanthus

S. Agrawal, C. Heiss, D. M. Zuckerman, J. M. T. So, K. Semeijn, R. Naran, P. Azadi, E. Hoiczyk

This paper identifies a novel high-molecular-weight fiber-forming polysaccharide in Myxococcus xanthus that functions as an osmoregulated periplasmic glucan, replacing canonical OPGs and stabilizing the cell envelope during spore formation.
