Diffusion of Bacterial Cells in Porous Media.

Biophysical journal - 5 Jan 2016

Licata Nicholas A, Mohari Bitan, Fuqua Clay, Setayeshgar Sima

Abstract excerpt

The chemotaxis signal transduction network regulates the biased random walk of many bacteria in favorable directions and away from harmful ones through modulating the frequency of directional reorientations. In mutants of diverse bacteria lacking the chemotaxis response, migration in classic motility agar, which constitutes a fluid-filled porous medium, is compromised; straight-swimming cells unable to tumble...
