      This important study describes how a single effector of the Type Six Secretion System (T6SS) has two distinct functions, which may contribute to bacterial survival and the development of novel antibacterials. The authors utilized various methods in biochemistry, microbiology, and microscopy to produce convincing data supporting their claims about the protein's function; however, they could clarify the implications for non-experts to enhance the accessibility of this work. This manuscript is of interest to those studying T6SS, particularly those interested in effectors and bacterial enzymes.
