Bacteria don’t just grow—they organize. New tech from the Bassler Lab reveals how V. cholerae biofilms use quorum sensing and c-di-GMP to coordinate when and where matrix genes are expressed. Elegant division of labor in action. go.njmicrobe.org/tAX1Dd #microbiology #biofilms #BasslerLab #science
Unveiling Biofilm Secrets: A New Look at Bacterial Communication and Community Building
Bacteria rarely exist as isolated individuals. Instead, they commonly form complex, surface-attached communities called biofilms, which are crucial in diverse environments from human bodies to industr...
