Disrupting chemotaxis stimulates adhesion by recruiting a putative c-di-GMP effector to the <i>Caulobacter crescentus</i> cell pole

2026-08-26

Abstract excerpt

Contact with solid surfaces activates signaling pathways that promote biofilm formation in many bacteria. The alphaproteobacterium Caulobacter crescentus uses its flagellum to sense surfaces and responds by synthesizing an adhesive called the holdfast. The C. crescentus surface sensing pathway can be activated by mutating genes required for the assembly of the flagellum or genes required for chemotaxis. However,...
