Single-Cell Division Triggers Immediate Efflux Phenotypic Switching to Environmental Toxins in Escherichia coli.

Environmental microbiology - 1 Jul 2026

Jin Xin, Tian Tian, Zhao Yanna, Guo Xuejun

Abstract excerpt

Microbial communities in natural environments are consistently challenged by toxic compounds, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). The capacity for rapid phenotypic diversification is key to survival in these dynamic and often hostile niches. Here, we report a mechanism by which Escherichia coli (E. coli) generates immediate phenotypic heterogeneity in response to a model PAH, perylene. Utilising...
