Abstract
The recently discovered Type 9 Secretion System (T9SS) is present in bacteria of the Fibrobacteres–Bacteroidetes–Chlorobi superphylum, which are key constituents of diverse microbiomes. T9SS is instrumental in the extracellular secretion of over 270,000 proteins, including peptidases, sugar hydrolases, metal ion-binding proteins, and metalloenzymes. These proteins are essential for the interaction of bacteria with their environment. This mini-review explores the extensive array of proteins secreted by the T9SS. It highlights the diverse functions of these proteins, emphasizing their roles in pathogenesis, bacterial interactions, host colonization, and the overall health of the ecosystems inhabited by T9SS-containing bacteria.
