Cooperation and virulence of clinical Pseudomonas aeruginosa populations.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 14 Apr 2009

Köhler Thilo, Buckling Angus, van Delden Christian

Abstract excerpt

Bacteria communicate and cooperate to perform a wide range of social behaviors including production of extracellular products (public goods) that are crucial for growth and virulence. Their expression may be switched on by the detection of threshold densities of diffusible signals [Quorum-Sensing (QS)]. Studies using the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa suggest that QS "cheats"-individuals that don't...
