The Vibrio cholerae Type VI Secretion System Can Modulate Host Intestinal Mechanics to Displace Commensal Gut Bacteria

S. L. Logan, J. Thomas, J. Yan, R. P. Baker, D. S. Shields, J. B. Xavier, B. K. Hammer, R. Parthasarathy

This study shows Vibrio cholerae uses its Type VI Secretion System to enhance zebrafish intestinal motility, displacing commensal bacteria without killing them.
