Bacterial Signaling and Motility: Sure Bets [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 2008
The IX International Conference on Bacterial Locomotion and Signal Transduction (BLAST IX) was held from 14 to 19 January 2007 in Laughlin, NV, a town in the Mojave Desert on the Nevada-Arizona border near old Route 66 and along the banks of the Colorado River. This area is a home to rattlesnakes,

Genome sequence of the pattern forming Paenibacillus vortex bacterium reveals potential for thriving in complex environments

, 2010
Background The pattern-forming bacterium Paenibacillus vortex is notable for its advanced social behavior, which is reflected in development of colonies with highly intricate architectures.

Three phosphatase families form a community: The phosphohydrolases that act upon inositol pyrophosphates

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Swimming Motility, a Virulence Trait of Ralstonia solanacearum, Is Regulated by FlhDC and the Plant Host Environment

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2004
Swimming motility allows the bacterial wilt pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum to efficiently invade and colonize host plants. However, the bacteria are essentially nonmotile once inside plant xylem vessels.

Exopolysaccharide microchannels direct bacterial motility and organize multicellular behavior

The ISME Journal, 2016
The myxobacteria are a family of soil bacteria that form biofilms of complex architecture, aligned multilayered swarms or fruiting body structures that are simple or branched aggregates containing myxospores.

Dynamic motility selection drives population segregation in a bacterial swarm

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020
Significance Ecological models usually take growth rate fitness as the essential driver of population dynamics. However, as a widespread natural phenomenon, population expansion in space (or range expansion) is often governed by both motility and growth.

ABL kinase‐dependent phosphorylation of SH proteins promotes their direct interaction with CRK family SH2 domains

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
CT10 regulator of kinase (CRK) and CRK‐Like (CRKL) are signaling adaptors driving cell adhesion, motility, differentiation, and proliferation. SH2‐domain containing (SH) proteins are enriched in YXXP motifs which when phosphorylated create preferred binding sites for CRK family SH2 domains.

Bacterial Motility in Biofilm Under Shear Flow

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2022
A key role in bacteria surfaces contamination and biofilm development is played by cell motility and adhesion, that can be heavily dependent on flow conditions.

The Measurement of Bacterial Motility [PDF]

Journal of General Microbiology, 1960
SUMMARY: Bacterial motility was measured by a simple method which consists of counting the number of organisms which pass across a small aperture in a given time. The count is proportional to the bacterial concentration in the suspension and also to the average speed of the bacteria.
