Abstract: Polyamines are biologically ubiquitous cations that bind to nucleic acids, ribosomes, and phospholipids and, thereby, modulate numerous processes, including surface motility in Escherichia coli. We characterized the metabolic pathways that contribute to polyamine-dependent control of… read more here.

Abstract: ABSTRACT In most natural environments, bacteria live in polymicrobial communities where secreted molecules from neighboring species alter bacterial behaviors, including motility, but such interactions are understudied. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a motile opportunistic pathogen that exists… read more here.

Abstract: Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Burkholderia cenocepacia are important opportunistic pathogens often found together in the airways of persons with cystic fibrosis. Laboratory cocultures of both species often ends with one taking over the other. ABSTRACT Interactions… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms23147698
Abstract: Bacteria can spread on surfaces to colonize new environments and access more resources. Rhizobia, a group of α- and β-Proteobacteria, establish nitrogen-fixing symbioses with legumes that rely on a complex signal interchange between the partners.… read more here.
