Surface hydrophilicity promotes bacterial twitching motility

mSphere
Twitching motility is a form of bacterial surface translocation powered by the type IV pilus (T4P). It is frequently analyzed by interstitial colony expansion between agar and the polystyrene surfaces of petri dishes.

The colloidal nature of complex fluids enhances bacterial motility [PDF]

Nature, 2021
The natural habitats of microorganisms in the human microbiome, ocean and soil ecosystems are full of colloids and macromolecules. Such environments exhibit non-Newtonian flow properties, drastically affecting the locomotion of microorganisms1–5 ...

The stationary phase-specific sRNA FimR2 is a multifunctional regulator of bacterial motility, biofilm formation and virulence. [PDF]

Nucleic Acids Res, 2022
Bacterial pathogens employ a plethora of virulence factors for host invasion, and their use is tightly regulated to maximize infection efficiency and manage resources in a nutrient-limited environment. Here we show that during Escherichia coli stationary

Early stage of biofilm assembly on microplastics is structured by substrate size and bacterial motility

iMeta, 2023
The taxonomic structure of biofilms on 0.3‐mm microplastics differed significantly from that on 3‐mm microplastics or glass particles. Compared with the 3‐mm microplastics, biofilms on 0.3‐mm microplastics were enriched for genes involved in flagellar ...

Chained Structure of Dimeric F₁-like ATPase in Mycoplasma mobile Gliding Machinery

mBio, 2021
Mycoplasma mobile, a fish pathogen, exhibits gliding motility using ATP hydrolysis on solid surfaces, including animal cells. The gliding machinery can be divided into surface and internal structures. The internal structure of the motor is composed of 28
