A broad-spectrum phage-encoded mechanism to disarm bacterial type IV filaments

It is shown that despite originating from a P. aeruginosa-specific phage, Aqs1 can also disable T4 ATPase-dependent phenotypes across other pathogenic bacteria and homologous systems and provides a design template for broad-spectrum inhibitors of diverse bacterial virulence factors.

β-strand addition within tip initiation complexes licenses assembly of diverse type IV filaments

How PilC/PilY1 can be retained on the fiber tip under enormous tensile loads generated during mechanical shear and T4P retraction is explained and how diverse T4P systems employ β-strand addition to license fiber assembly is demonstrated.
