Lactate Signal: Modulator of Cellular Energy Production and Anabolism

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Compartmentalized lactate signaling provides a spatial framework for understanding how lactate‐rich states are generated, transported, sensed, and translated into biological outputs. This Review integrates extracellular, cytosolic, mitochondrial‐associated, and nuclear lactate mechanisms to explain how lactate shapes metabolic adaptation, immune ...

Competition Sensing: The Social Side of Bacterial Stress Responses

open access: yesNature Reviews Microbiology, 2013
The field of ecology has long recognized two types of competition: exploitative competition, which occurs indirectly through resource consumption, and interference competition, whereby one individual directly harms another.

Competition for Space During Bacterial Colonization of a Surface [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Society Interface, 2015
Competition for space is ubiquitous in the ecology of both microorganisms and macro-organisms. We introduce a bacterial model system in which the factors influencing competition for space during colonization of an initially empty habitat can be tracked ...

Factors affecting the competitiveness of bacterial fermentation

Trends in Biotechnology, 2023
Sustainable production of chemicals and materials from renewable non-food biomass using biorefineries has become increasingly important in an effort toward the vision of 'net zero carbon' that has recently been pledged by countries around the world. Systems metabolic engineering has allowed the efficient development of microbial strains overproducing ...

Metabolic Competition as a Driver of Bacterial Population Structure [PDF]

open access: yesFuture Microbiology, 2016
Understanding the processes whereby diversity arises and is maintained in pathogen populations is pivotal for designing disease control interventions. A particular problem is the maintenance of strain structure in bacterial pathogen populations despite frequent genetic exchange.

Bacterial Competition in Serial Transfer Culture

Mathematical Biosciences, 2011
A mathematical model of bacterial competition for a single growth-limiting substrate in serial transfer culture is formulated. Each bacterial strain is characterized by a growth response function, e.g. Monod function determined by a maximum growth rate and half-saturation nutrient concentration, and the length of its lag phase following the dilution ...

Bacterial coexistence driven by motility and spatial competition

Nature, 2020
Elucidating elementary mechanisms that underlie bacterial diversity is central to ecology1,2 and microbiome research3. Bacteria are known to coexist by metabolic specialization4, cooperation5 and cyclic warfare6-8. Many species are also motile9, which is studied in terms of mechanism10,11, benefit12,13, strategy14,15, evolution16,17 and ecology18,19 ...
