Prophage Activation Triggers Extracellular Synthesis of DNA in Bacterial Biofilms via Rolling Circle Replication

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Shewanella oneidensis and Bacillus subtilis, both harboring prophages, reveal a novel biosynthetic route to scalable and programmable DNA superstructures in flower‐ and wire‐like shapes, respectively. Activation of prophages is achieved via 3‐hour starvation and monitored using reporter strains.

Effects of Calcium and Manganese on Sporulation of Bacillus Species Involved in Food Poisoning and Spoilage

open access: yesFoods, 2019
Spores are resistant against many extreme conditions including the disinfection and sterilization methods used in the food industry. Selective prevention of sporulation of Bacillus species is an ongoing challenge for food scientists and fermentation ...

Ancestral sporulation initiation [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, 2011
SummaryMembers of the classes Bacilli and Clostridia are able to form endospores, with clostridia representing the ancestral phylogenetic line. In contrast to Bacillus subtilis, the process of sporulation initiation at the molecular level is less well understood in Clostridium acetobutylicum, the model organism of the clostridia.

Clostridium perfringens Sporulation and Sporulation-Associated Toxin Production [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2016
ABSTRACT The ability of Clostridium perfringens to form spores plays a key role during the transmission of this Gram-positive bacterium to cause disease. Of particular note, the spores produced by food poisoning strains are often exceptionally resistant to food environment stresses such as heat, cold, and ...

Impact of deoxycholate on Clostridioides difficile growth, toxin production, and sporulation

open access: yesHeliyon, 2020
Purpose: Bile acids play an important role in Clostridioides difficile life cycle. Deoxycholate (DCA), one of the most abundant secondary bile acids, is known to inhibit vegetative growth and toxin production.

The RgaS-RgaR two-component system promotes Clostridioides difficile sporulation through a small RNA and the Agr1 system.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2023
The ability to form a dormant spore is essential for the survival of the anaerobic pathogen, Clostridioides difficile, outside of the mammalian gastrointestinal tract.

To Sporulate or Not to Sporulate: Developmental Checkpoints Monitoring Bacillus subtilis Sporulation

open access: yesAnnual Review of Microbiology
Developmental processes are carefully regulated programs that are present in multiple kingdoms of life and that generally result in cell differentiation and specialization. This regulation can be mediated in part by checkpoints that monitor the progression of development to ensure that earlier steps occur successfully before later ...
