To Move or Not to Move: When and How Bacteria Suppress Flagellar Motility
Motility cessation in bacteria is a key regulatory strategy that provides multiple survival advantages including enhanced community cooperation, niche adaptation and evasion of host immune responses. This process is controlled by associated mechanisms such as post‐translational modifications and second messenger signalling that stabilise non‐motile ...

A Flagella Specific Bacteriophage for Caulobacter
Summary A bacteriophage containing DNA and which is active on Caulobacter vibrioides CV6 has been shown to attach to the flagellum of the motile cell type. Attachment to the flagellum appears to be a necessary preliminary step to irreversible attachment to the cell wall at the base of the flagellum.

Genetic Recombination in Caulobacter [PDF]
SUMMARY: Auxotrophic, phage-resistant and streptomycin-resistant mutants of Caulobacter were used to demonstrate genetic recombination in this genus. Forty of a possible 170 mating pairs gave recombinant frequencies of from 100 to 1000 times greater than reversion frequencies for the markers used.

The Polymers of Life: Exploring Cellular Function Through Polymer Concepts
Biomolecular phase separation reveals that a hidden layer of cellular organization is governed by the principles of polymer science. This review bridges polymer physics and cell biology, offering a primer on fundamental concepts, proposing a framework for interrogating cellular function, and synthesizing biophysical methods for decoding macromolecular ...

RNA-controlled regulation in Caulobacter crescentus
In the past decades, Caulobacter crescentus has been extensively studied, mostly regarding its dimorphic, asymmetric life cycle. Its distinct mode of reproduction and the need to optimally adapt to ever-changing environmental conditions require tight coordination of gene regulation.

Escherichia coli Culture Filtrate Enhances the Growth of Gemmata spp.
BackgroundPlanctomycetes bacteria are known to be difficult to isolate, we hypothesized this may be due to missing iron compounds known to be important for other bacteria.

Caulobacter and Novosphingobium in tumor tissues are associated with colorectal cancer outcomes
Diversity and composition of the gut microbiome are associated with cancer patient outcomes including colorectal cancer (CRC). A growing number of evidence indicates that Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn) in CRC tissue is associated with worse survival ...

In this study, the heme content and enzymatic activity of the RhDypB mutant strain RhDypB‐R80 were enhanced through optimized heme uptake and pathway integration. This engineered host presents a promising platform for hemoprotein engineering and holds potential for applications in controlling mycotoxin contamination in food products.
