MstX and a putative potassium channel facilitate biofilm formation in Bacillus subtilis.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2013

Lundberg Matthew E, Becker Eric C, Choe Senyon

Abstract excerpt

Biofilms constitute the predominant form of microbial life and a potent reservoir for innate antibiotic resistance in systemic infections. In the spore-forming bacterium Bacillus subtilis, the transition from a planktonic to sessile state is mediated by mutually exclusive regulatory pathways controlling the expression of genes required for flagellum or biofilm formation. Here, we identify mstX and yugO as novel...
