Kevin L. Hockett, Marc T. Nishimura, Erick Karlsrud, Kevin Dougherty, David A. Baltrus
The paper investigates a Pseudomonas syringae strain with a minimal type III effector repertoire, showing its virulence relies on both the type III secretion system and a new effector family, HopBJ1, which shares catalytic sites with E. coli toxins.
