The Type VI Secretion System: A Dynamic System for Bacterial Communication? [PDF]
Front Microbiol, 2017 Numerous studies in Gram-negative bacteria have focused on the Type VISecretion Systems (T6SSs), Quorum Sensing (QS), and social behavior, such as in biofilms.

Profiling of Oral Bacterial Communities [PDF]
Journal of Dental Research, 2020 The profiling of bacterial communities by the sequencing of housekeeping genes such as that encoding the small subunit ribosomal RNA has revealed the extensive diversity of bacterial life on earth. Standard protocols have been developed and are widely used for this application, but individual habitats may require modification of methods.

Indole intercepts the communication between enteropathogenic E. coli and Vibrio cholerae
Gut Microbes, 2022 Reported numbers of diarrheal samples exhibiting co-infections or multiple infections, with two or more infectious agents, are rising, likely due to advances in bacterial diagnostic techniques.

Gut Microbes, 2023 Quorum Sensing (QS) is a form of cell-to-cell communication that enables bacteria to modify behavior according to their population density. While QS has been proposed as a potential intervention against pathogen infection, QS-mediated communication ...

Bacterial Quorum-Sensing Systems and Their Role in Intestinal Bacteria-Host Crosstalk
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Quorum-sensing (QS) system is a rapidly developing field in which we are gradually expanding our understanding about how bacteria communicate with each other and regulate their activities in bacterial sociality.

Journal of Biosciences, 2002 For a long time, the ability to communicate has been considered as an exclusive property of multicellular "higher" organisms. However, research over the past few decades has raised serious doubts about this point of view. Complex behaviours such as chemotaxis, quorum sensing and biofilm formation show that bacteria can communicate with the environment,

Modulating streptococcal phenotypes using signal peptide analogues
Open Biology, 2022 Understanding bacterial communication mechanisms is imperative to improve our current understanding of bacterial infectivity and find alternatives to current modes of antibacterial therapeutics.

The Origins of Cooperative Bacterial Communities [PDF]
mBio, 2012 ABSTRACT Bacteria live in complex multispecies communities. Intimately interacting bacterial cells are ubiquitous on biological and mineral surfaces in all habitats. Molecular and cellular biologists have unraveled some key mechanisms that modulate bacterial interactions, but the ecology and evolution of these associations remain poorly ...

Microbial communication, cooperation and cheating: quorum sensing drives the evolution of cooperation in bacteria [PDF]
, 2009 An increasing body of empirical evidence suggests that cooperation among clone-mates is common in bacteria. Bacterial cooperation may take the form of the excretion of ‘‘public goods’’: exoproducts such as virulence factors, exoenzymes or components of ...

Pseudomonas fluorescens MFE01 uses 1-undecene as aerial communication molecule
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 Bacterial communication is a fundamental process used to synchronize gene expression and collective behavior among the bacterial population. The most studied bacterial communication system is quorum sensing, a cell density system, in which the ...
