| Abstract: | Background The type III secretion system (T3SS) is a molecular machine in gram negative bacteria that exports proteins through both membranes
to the extracellular environment. It has been previously demonstrated that the T3SS encoded in Salmonella Pathogenicity Island 1 (SPI-1) can be harnessed to export recombinant proteins. Here, we demonstrate the secretion of a variety
of unfolded spider silk proteins and use these data to quantify the constraints of this system with respect to the export
of recombinant protein. |
