Acinetobacter baumannii is a nosocomial pathogen accountable for millions of hospital-related infections per year in impaired patients. This pathogen has become more relevant in the last few years due to high rates of antibiotic resistance associated to it, leading it to the World Health Organization (WHO) priority list of bacteria for the development of new antibiotic treatments. Its inf…
Most bacteria rely on the secretion of proteins to adapt and survive in the environment. This is also true for pathogens, which secrete virulence factors to colonize and stablish infections in their hosts. The Gram-negative pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii is an example, since it uses its Type II Secretion System (T2SS) to secrete enzymes that assist in nutrient acquisition and modulation…
