Inhibition of Escherichia coli chemotaxis by omega-conotoxin, a calcium ion channel blocker [PDF]
Escherichia coli chemotaxis was inhibited by omega-conotoxin, a calcium ion channel blocker. With Tris-EDTA-permeabilized cells, nanomolar levels of omega-conotoxin inhibited chemotaxis without loss of motility.

A new class of protein sensor links spirochete pleomorphism, persistence, and chemotaxis
Pathogenic spirochetes can alter their morphologies and behaviors to infect and survive within their hosts. Previous reports demonstrate that the formation of the so-called “round bodies” and biofilms, and chemotaxis are involved in spirochete ...

On an exponential attractor for a class of PDEs with degenerate diffusion and chemotaxis [PDF]
In this article we deal with a class of strongly coupled parabolic systems that encompasses two different effects: degenerate diffusion and chemotaxis.

Most chemotactic motile bacteria possess multiple chemotaxis signaling systems, the functions of which are not well characterized. Chemotaxis signaling is initiated by chemoreceptors that assemble as large arrays, together with chemotaxis coupling ...

Tracking bifurcating solutions of a model biological pattern generator [PDF]
We study heterogeneous steady-state solutions of a cell-chemotaxis model for generating biological spatial patterns in two-dimensional domains with zero flux boundary conditions.

Bacterial chemotaxis: a way forward to aromatic compounds biodegradation
Worldwide industrial development has released hazardous polycyclic aromatic compounds into the environment. These pollutants need to be removed to improve the quality of the environment.

Chemotaxis and autochemotaxis of self-propelling droplet swimmers [PDF]
Significance Statement Chemotaxis and autochemotaxis are key mechanisms in the dynamics of microorganisms, e.g., in the acquisition of nutrients and in the communication between individuals, as well as influencing their collective behavior.

Developmental aspects of monocyte and neutrophil chemotaxis were evaluated by the agarose and the Boyden chamber methods. Simultaneous measurements of both the distances and the cell counts were carried out by the agarose method. Before 6 years of age monocyte chemotaxis values, determined by the Boyden chamber method, were significantly lower than ...

Sperm chemotaxis in marine invertebrates and mammals
Sperm respond to multiple chemical factors derived from the eggs and reorient their migratory direction – a process called chemotaxis. The chemotaxis of sperm in marine invertebrates has been established well.
