Prokaryotic multicellularity: a nanopore array for bacterial cell communication.

FASEB journal : official publication of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology - 1 Jun 2013

Lehner Josef, Berendt Susanne, Dörsam Bastian, Pérez Rebeca, Forchhammer Karl, Maldener Iris

Abstract excerpt

The transition from unicellular to multicellular life, which occurred several times during evolution, requires tight interaction and communication of neighboring cells. The multicellular cyanobacterium Nostoc punctiforme ATCC 29133 forms filaments of hundreds of interacting cells exchanging metabolites and signal molecules and is able to differentiate specialized cells in response to environmental stimuli....
