Functional study of Bergeyella cardium KP-43 subfamily peptidases as putative T9SS cargo

Abstract Bergeyella cardium causes infections in human organs. However, the mechanism of the virulence of B. cardium is unclear. Peptidases are important virulence factors in bacterial pathogens. Here, we identified three KP-43 subfamily peptidases, SpBcA, SpBcB and SpBcC, which are putative T9SS ca...
