Glycopeptidolipid acetylation affects sliding motility and biofilm formation in Mycobacterium smegmatis.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Oct 2001

Recht J, Kolter R

Abstract excerpt

The absence of glycopeptidolipids (GPLs) abolishes the ability of mycobacteria both to slide over the surface of motility plates and to form biofilms on polyvinyl chloride. In a screen for biofilm-defective mutants of Mycobacterium smegmatis mc(2)155, a new mutant was obtained that resulted in partial inhibition of both processes and also showed an intermediate rough colony morphology. The mariner transposon...
