abstract = {Mycobacteria utilize type VII secretion systems (T7SSs) to
secrete proteins across their highly hydrophobic and diderm
cell envelope. Pathogenic mycobacteria have up to five
different T7SSs, called ESX-1 to ESX-5, which are crucial
for growth and virulence. Here, we use a functionally
reconstituted ESX-5 system in the avirulent species
Mycobacterium smegmatis that lacks ESX-5, to define the role
of each esx-5 gene in system functionality. By creating an
array of gene deletions and assessing protein levels of
components and membrane complex assembly, we observed that
only the five components of the inner membrane complex are
required for its assembly. However, in addition to these
five core components, active secretion also depends on both
the Esx and PE/PPE substrates. Tagging the PPE substrates
followed by subcellular fractionation, surface labeling and
membrane extraction showed that these proteins localize to
the mycobacterial outer membrane. This indicates that they
could play a role in secretion across this enigmatic outer
barrier. These results provide the first full overview of
the role of each esx-5 gene in T7SS functionality.},
