DOI: 10.1021/acs.est.8b02370
Abstract: Chemoeffector-mediated bacterial motility and tactic swimming are major drivers for contaminant accessibility and biodegradation at submillimeter scales. In sand-filled percolated columns we tested how and to what degree chemoeffectors influenced bacterial transport and thereby promoted… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/bioinformatics/btae170
Abstract: MOTIVATION Many organisms' survival and behavior hinge on their responses to environmental signals. While research on bacteria-directed therapeutic agents has increased, systematic exploration of real-time modulation of bacterial motility remains limited. Current studies often focus… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/mpp.12677
Abstract: During plant-pathogen interactions, pathogenic bacteria have evolved multiple strategies to cope with the sophisticated defence systems of host plants. Proline iminopeptidase (PIP) is essential to Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc) virulence, and is conserved in… read more here.
