Photo sensing and quorum sensing are integrated to control bacterial group behaviors

2019-08-28

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Pseudomonas aeruginosa transitions between the free-swimming state and the sessile biofilm mode during its pathogenic lifestyle. We show that quorum sensing represses P. aeruginosa biofilm formation and virulence by activating expression of genes encoding the KinB-AlgB two-component system. Phospho-AlgB represses biofilm and virulence genes, while KinB dephosphorylates, and thereby, inactivates...
