Disruption of the <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> Tat system perturbs PQS-dependent quorum sensing and biofilm maturation through loss of the Rieske cytochrome <i> bc <sub>1</sub> </i> sub-unit
2021-03-01
Abstract excerpt
Extracellular DNA (eDNA) is a major constituent of the extracellular matrix of Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms and its release is regulated via the pseudomonas quinolone signal (PQS) dependent quorum sensing (QS). By screening a P. aeruginosa transposon library to identify factors required for DNA release, mutants with insertions in the twin-arginine translocation (Tat) pathway were identified as exhibiting redu...
