Diversification of the type IV filament super-family into machines for adhesion, secretion, DNA transformation and motility

R. Denise, S. S. Abby, E. P. Rocha

The paper traces the evolutionary diversification of type IV filament systems in Bacteria and Archaea, showing how they adapted for motility, adhesion, secretion, and DNA transformation through gene duplication, fission, and horizontal transfer.
