Pseudomonas fluorescens MFE01 uses 1-undecene as aerial communication molecule

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

Phytochemical screening and anti-virulence properties of Ceiba pentandra and Ceiba aesculifolia (Malvaceae) bark extracts and fractions

open access: yesBotan‪ical Sciences, 2018
Background: Inhibition of quorum sensing systems (QSS-I) is a novel strategy in the treatment of bacterial infections. To date, plants are the major source of metabolites with this inhibitory activity.

Bacterial Communities and Their Role in Bacterial Infections

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience-Elite
Since infections associated with microbial communities threaten human health, research is increasingly focusing on the development of biofilms and strategies to combat them. Bacterial communities may include bacteria of one or several species. Therefore, examining all the microbes and identifying individual community bacteria responsible for the ...

Impact of ATP8B1 Mutation and Maturation on CFTR Functionality and Gene Expression

open access: yesLivers
Background/Objectives: Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 1 (PFIC1) is a rare autosomal recessive liver disorder caused by mutations in the ATP8B1 gene, leading to defective bile acid secretion and severe clinical outcomes.

Enterococcus faecalis Enhances Expression and Activity of the Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli Type III Secretion System

open access: yesmBio, 2019
The gut microbiota can significantly impact invading pathogens and the disease they cause; however, many of the mechanisms that dictate commensal-pathogen interactions remain unclear.

Bacterial Quorum Sensing Allows Graded and Bimodal Cellular Responses to Variations in Population Density

open access: yesmBio, 2022
Quorum sensing (QS) is a mechanism of cell-cell communication that connects gene expression to environmental conditions (e.g., cell density) in many bacterial species, mediated by diffusible signal molecules.

Quorum Sensing Signal Selectivity and the Potential for Interspecies Cross Talk

open access: yesmBio, 2019
Many species of proteobacteria communicate with kin and coordinate group behaviors through a form of cell-cell signaling called acyl-homoserine lactone (AHL) quorum sensing (QS).

Intercellular Nanotubes Mediate Bacterial Communication [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2011
Bacteria are known to communicate primarily via secreted extracellular factors. Here we identify a previously uncharacterized type of bacterial communication mediated by nanotubes that bridge neighboring cells. Using Bacillus subtilis as a model organism, we visualized transfer of cytoplasmic fluorescent molecules between adjacent cells.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Bio-Communication of Bacteria and its Evolutionary Interrelations to Natural Genome Editing Competences of Viruses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Communicative competences enable bacteria to develop, organise and coordinate rich social life with a great variety of behavioral patterns even in which they organise themselves like multicellular organisms.
