Cardiac outflow obstruction may also result in sudden-onset syncope with little or no prodrome. One critical clue is the exertional nature, and the other is the presence of a cardiac murmur. Young athletes may present with this etiology for syncope.
SUMMARY. Summary: Flagellar and translocation-associated type III secretion (T3S) systems are present in most Gram-negative plant-and animal-pathogenic bacteria and are often essential for bacterial motility or pathogenicity.o date, T3S4 proteins have been described for translocation-associated T3S systems from several animal-pathogenic bacteria (YscP from Yersinia spp., Spa32 from Shigella spp., and InvJ from Salmonella spp.) and the plant-pathogenic bacterium X. campestris pv. vesicatoria (HpaC) (Table 6).
Griffith concluded that the type II-R had been transformed into the lethal III-S strain by a transforming principle that was somehow part of the dead III-S strain bacteria. Today, we know that the transforming principle Griffith observed was the DNA of the III-s strain bacteria. While the bacteria had been killed, the DNA had survived the heating process and was taken up by the II-R strain bacteria. The III-S strain DNA contains the genes that form the protective polysaccharide capsule.
