Abstract

Bacteria have developed several mechanisms to get rid of their competitors, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which has developed multiple toxins to attack. Among the effector proteins, the Tse5 effector is a key piece in this competition. In this research work, the effect of the Tse5-CT toxic domain and its cellular fate have been analyzed. The obtained results have described the potential of Tse5-CT domains to insert into the cell membrane. It has also been shown to have the capacity to cause membrane depolarization.
