Identification of novel toxins associated with the extracellular contractile injection system using machine learning
Abstract Secretion systems play a crucial role in microbe-microbe or host-microbe interactions.Among these systems, the extracellular contractile injection system (eCIS) is a unique bacterial and archaeal extracellular secretion system that injects protein toxins into target organisms.However, the specific proteins that eCISs inject into target cel
