Summary scheme of TfoX‐ and TfoY‐induced phenotypes in V. cholerae and non‐cholera Vibrio species.

TfoX‐ and TfoY‐mediated regulation of natural competence, motility and type VI secretion is depicted. The T6SS clusters of V. cholerae (only the major cluster is shown), V. fischeri (only the conserved T6SS cluster is shown), V. alginolyticus and V. parahaemolyticus are indicated (scale corresponds to 5 kbp as indicated). Arrows indicate positive regulation by the respective regulator TfoX or TfoY. The scheme also shows the co‐regulating QS master regulators of TfoX‐mediated phenotypes (experimentally demonstrated for HapR, LuxR and OpaR and predicted for LitR).
