Multivariate approach to comparing whole-cell proteomes of Bacillus cereus indicates a biofilm-specific proteome.

Abstract excerpt

Biofilm bacteria are widely held to exhibit a unique phenotype, typified by their increased resistance to antimicrobial agents. Numerous studies have been devoted to the identification of biofilm-specific genes, but surprisingly few have been reported to date. We compared the whole cell proteomes of 24 h old Bacillus cereus biofilms and the associated suspended population to exponential, transient and stationary...
