Temporal and Stochastic Control of Staphylococcus aureus Biofilm Development
15 Oct 2014
Abstract excerpt
Biofilm communities contain distinct microniches that result in metabolic heterogeneity and variability in gene expression. Previously, these niches were visualized within Staphylococcus aureus biofilms by observing differential expression of the cid and lrg operons during tower formation. In the present study, we examined early biofilm development and identified two new stages (designated "multiplication" and...
