Bacillus subtilis Intraspecies Interactions Shape Probiotic Activity Against Salmonella Typhimurium [PDF]
Commercial probiotics are often formulated as multi‐strain cocktails, but the effects of social interactions, particularly between strains of a species, are often neglected, despite their potential to contribute to higher‐order interactions where these ...

A dynamic, ring-forming MucB / RseB-like protein influences spore shape in Bacillus subtilis. [PDF]
How organisms develop into specific shapes is a central question in biology. The maintenance of bacterial shape is connected to the assembly and remodelling of the cell envelope.

Colony shape as a genetic trait in the pattern-forming
Background Bacillus mycoides Flügge, a Gram-positive, non-motile soil bacterium assigned to Bacillus cereus group, grows on agar as chains of cells linked end to end, forming radial filaments curving clock- or counter-clockwise (SIN or DX morphotypes ...

Direct observation of a crescent-shape chromosome in expanded Bacillus subtilis cells [PDF]
Bacterial chromosomes are folded into tightly regulated three-dimensional structures to ensure proper transcription, replication, and segregation of the genetic information.

Bacillus biofilm formation and niche adaptation shape long-distance transported dust microbial community [PDF]
Long-distance microbial transport via dust events is projected to intensify globally. However, survival mechanisms of air- and dust-borne bacteria and their contribution to global processes remain poorly understood.

The CodY-dependent clhAB2 operon is involved in cell shape, chaining and autolysis in Bacillus cereus ATCC 14579. [PDF]
The Gram-positive pathogen Bacillus cereus is able to grow in chains of rod-shaped cells, but the regulation of chaining remains largely unknown. Here, we observe that glucose-grown cells of B. cereus ATCC 14579 form longer chains than those grown in the

Synthesis of Iron Oxide Magnetic Nanoparticles: Characterization and its Biomedical Application
In the present time, Iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles (IOMNPs) have paid considerable attention due to their exclusive applications in terms of surface-to-volume ratio, superparamagnetism, high surface area, biosensor, bio-separation, catalysis, and ...

Bistable forespore engulfment in Bacillus subtilis by a zipper mechanism in absence of the cell wall [PDF]
To survive starvation, the bacterium Bacillus subtilis forms durable spores. The initial step of sporulation is asymmetric cell division, leading to a large mother-cell and a small forespore compartment.
