The cyclic di-GMP (c-di-GMP) second messenger represents a signaling system that
regulates many bacterial behaviors and is of key importance for driving the lifestyle switch …

Our knowledge of the microbiology of the phyllosphere, or the aerial parts of plants, has
historically lagged behind our knowledge of the microbiology of the rhizosphere, or the …

Biofilm formation of microorganisms causes persistent tissue and foreign body infections
resistant to treatment with antimicrobial agents. Up to 80% of human bacterial infections are …

Twenty-five years have passed since the discovery of cyclic dimeric (3′→ 5′) GMP (cyclic
di-GMP or c-di-GMP). From the relative obscurity of an allosteric activator of a bacterial …

Pseudomonas fluorescens is not generally considered a bacterial pathogen in humans;
however, multiple culture-based and culture-independent studies have identified it at low …

The striking multiplicity, signal input diversity, and output specificity of c-di-GMP signaling
proteins in many bacteria has brought second messenger signaling back onto the agenda of …

For an organism to survive, it must be able to sense its environment and regulate
physiological processes accordingly. Understanding how bacteria integrate signals from …

In the present review, we describe and compare the molecular mechanisms that are
involved in the regulation of biofilm formation by P seudomonas putida, P seudomonas …

The formation of bacterial biofilms is initiated by cells transitioning from the free-swimming
mode of growth to a surface. This review is aimed at highlighting the common themes that …

Aliphatic medium-chain 1-alkenes (MCAEs,∼ 10 carbons) are “drop-in” compatible next-
generation fuels and precursors to commodity chemicals. Mass production of MCAEs from …
