A sweet twist gets Bacillus into shape [PDF]

open access: closedMolecular Microbiology, 2011
SummaryA protective organelle that is essential for viability under most conditions, the cell wall is a dynamic structure that is continuously remodelled with the growth of the bacterial cell. Because the cell wall also moulds the bacterium, the mechanisms of cell wall homeostasis can be deciphered using cell shape as a convenient proxy.

Shape determination in Bacillus subtilis

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2007
The discovery of cytoskeletal elements in prokaryotes has dramatically changed the way we think about bacterial cell morphogenesis. The rod shape of Bacillus subtilis is maintained by the two major polymers (peptidoglycan and teichoic acids) of its thick cell wall and determined by the way these are inserted during growth.

Bacillus quorum quenching shapes the citrus mycobiome through interkingdom signaling

open access: closedScience of The Total Environment
Microbiomes are sustained through infinite yet mutually interacting microbial communities, with bacteria and fungi serving as the major constituents. In recent times, microbial interventions have become popular for microbiome manipulation to achieve sustainable goals.

Factors contributing to helical shape determination and maintenance in Bacillus subtilis macrofibres

Annales de l'Institut Pasteur / Microbiologie, 1985
Bacillus subtilis, normally a rod-shaped organism, can grow in the form of a helix with pitch ranging over a spectrum from tight right-handed to tight left-handed depending upon the growth environment and genetic composition of the strain. Five factors have been identified which contribute either to the helical shape deformation or its maintenance: 1 ...

Self-Assembly of Magnetic Bacillus-Shaped Bilayer Vesicles in Catanionic Surfactant Solutions

Langmuir, 2016
Bacillus-shaped bilayer vesicles of nanoscale size are very rare structures of stable surfactant self-assembly, because they are both thermodynamically and electrostatically unfavorable in solution. It is evidently demonstrated that appropriately aqueous mixtures of single-tailed cationic and anionic (catanionic) surfactants can produce rigidly ...

Environment Shapes the Intra-species Diversity of Bacillus subtilis Isolates

Microbial Ecology, 2019
Cosmopolitan bacteria are those that are found practically everywhere in the world. One of them is Bacillus subtilis, which can travel around the world through dust storms rising from various deserts. Upon landing, bacterial survival is determined by the ability to adjust to the heterogonous environments and bacteria isolated from extremely different ...

Coccus-shaped Bacillus subtilis cells are inhibited at stage 0 of sporulation

Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1988
RodA and rodB mutations cause rod-shaped Bacillus subtilis cells to become coccus-shaped when the growth temperature is increased from 30 to 45 °C. At 30 °C four rod strains sporulated as well as the genetically closely related rod+ strains. In contrast, at 45 °C the sporulation frequencies of rod strains decreased approximately 102- to 104-fold ...

[Description of bacillus-shaped spot sweetflag virus].

Mikrobiolohichnyi zhurnal (Kiev, Ukraine : 1993), 2008
The spot sweetflag virus (SSV) as to its morphology and structural components in comparison with phytorhabdovirus of curly potato dwarf virus (CPDV) and rhabdoviruses of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV), pathogenic for people and animals, corresponds to the definition of rhabdovirus and belongs to Rhabdoviridae family.
