Identification of novel protein-protein interactions of Yersinia pestis type III secretion system by yeast two hybrid system.

Type III secretion system (T3SS) of the plague bacterium Y.pestis encodes a syringe-like structure consisting of more than 20 proteins, which can inject virulence effectors into host cells to modulate the cellular functions.Here in this report, interactions among the possible components in T3SS of Yersinia pestis were identified using yeast mating
