Flagellar motility is critical for Listeria monocytogenes biofilm formation.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Jun 2007

Lemon Katherine P, Higgins Darren E, Kolter Roberto

Abstract excerpt

The food-borne pathogen Listeria monocytogenes attaches to environmental surfaces and forms biofilms that can be a source of food contamination, yet little is known about the molecular mechanisms of its biofilm development. We observed that nonmotile mutants were defective in biofilm formation. To investigate how flagella might function during biofilm formation, we compared the wild type with flagellum-minus and...
