This research explores how bacteria use toxin delivery systems to compete for resources and their role in population dynamics. It investigates whether these systems contribute to growth variability and adaptation, with implications for understanding multicellular organization.
Bacteria live in environments where resources for growth are scarce and shared with other bacteria.
The ability to inhibit the growth of other bacteria is thus favourable and most bacteria use multiple systems for such antagonistic interactions, including delivery of protein toxins to other bacteria (e.g. bacteriocins, type 6 secretion and contact-dependent growth inhibition systems).
In addition to their role in competition, all these toxin delivery systems frequently deliver toxins to cells of…
