By in situ cryoelectron tomography, we report that the P. gingivalis T9SS consists of 18 PorM dimers arranged as a large, caged ring in the periplasm. Near the outer membrane, PorM dimers interact with a PorKN ring complex of ∼52 nm in diameter. PorMKN translocation complexes of a given T9SS adopt distinct conformations energized by the proton motive force, suggestive of different activation states. At the inner membrane, PorM associates with a cytoplasmic complex that exhibits 12-fold symmetry and requires both PorM and PorL for assembly. Activated motors deliver substrates across the outer membrane via one of eight Sov translocons arranged in a ring. The T9SSs are unique among known secretion systems in bacteria and eukaryotes in their assembly as supramolecular machines composed of apparently independently functioning translocation motors and export pores.
