Abstract Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) can function as nanoscale vectors that mediate bacterial interactions in microbial communities. How bacteria recognize and recruit OMVs inter-specifically remains largely unknown, thus limiting our understanding of the complex physiological ecological roles OMVs. Here, we report a ligand-receptor interaction-based OMV recruitment mechanism, consisting type VI secretion system (T6SS)-secreted lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-binding effector TeoL outer receptors CubA CstR. We demonstrated Cupriavidus necator T6SS1 secretes to preferentially associate with extracellular milieu through LPS, one most abundant components associated further bind CstR, which tethers recipient cells allows cargo be delivered. The LPS-mediated mechanism enables derived from different species, confers advantages iron acquisition, interbacterial competition, horizontal gene transfer (HGT).

Exosomes are small extracellular vesicles that carry lipids, proteins, and microRNAs (miRNAs). They released by all cell types can be found not only in circulation but many biological fluids. essential for interorgan communication because they transfer their contents from donor to recipient cells, modulating cellular functions.
