摘要: The term 'type III secretion' has seen widespread use. However, problems persist in nomenclature. We propose that the standard abbreviation for this kind of secretion should be 'T3S' and system' abbreviated to 'T3SS'. There is also a need new terminology distinguish flagellar non-flagellar type systems reflects their common evolutionary ancestry but does not obscure distinctive features. Finally, use cover cytolysin-mediated translocation deprecated because an authentic system already been described Gram-positive bacteria, namely protein export apparatus.
