Bacterial competition: surviving and thriving in the microbial jungle [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Microbiology, 2009
Most natural environments harbour a stunningly diverse collection of microbial species. In these communities, bacteria compete with their neighbours for space and resources. Laboratory experiments with pure and mixed cultures have revealed many active mechanisms by which bacteria can impair or kill other microorganisms.

Polylysogeny magnifies competitiveness of a bacterial pathogen in vivo [PDF]

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, 2015
AbstractThe rise of next generation sequencing is revealing a hidden diversity of temperate phages within the microbial community. While a handful of these phages have been well characterized, for the vast majority, the role of phage carriage, and especially multiple phage carriage, is poorly understood.

A Model for Sigma Factor Competition in Bacterial Cells

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2014
Sigma factors control global switches of the genetic expression program in bacteria. Different sigma factors compete for binding to a limited pool of RNA polymerase (RNAP) core enzymes, providing a mechanism for cross-talk between genes or gene classes via the sharing of expression machinery.

Bacterial Competition in the Presence of a Virus in a Chemostat

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
We derive a mathematical model that describes the competition of two populations in a chemostat in the presence of a virus. We suppose that only one population is affected by the virus. We also suppose that the substrate is continuously added to the bioreactor.

The Antibacterial Type VII Secretion System of Bacillus subtilis: Structure and Interactions of the Pseudokinase YukC/EssB

open access: yesmBio, 2022
Type VIIb secretion systems (T7SSb) were recently proposed to mediate different aspects of Firmicutes physiology, including bacterial pathogenicity and competition. However, their architecture and mechanism of action remain largely obscure.

A Type VI Secretion System Trans-Kingdom Effector Is Required for the Delivery of a Novel Antibacterial Toxin in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Pseudomonas aeruginosa has evolved multiple strategies to disarm and take advantage of its host. For this purpose, this opportunist pathogen has particularly developed protein secretion in the surrounding medium or injection into host cells.

Nitrite Triggers Reprogramming of the Oral Polymicrobial Metabolome by a Commensal Streptococcus

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
Commensal streptococci regulate health and homeostasis within oral polymicrobial communities. Remarkably, high salivary nitrite concentrations have also been associated with improved health in the oral cavity.
