With the continued increase of genomic information and computational analyses during the
recent years, the number of newly discovered calcium binding proteins (CaBPs) in …

Microbial-induced calcium precipitation (MICP) refers to the formation of calcium precipitates
induced by mineralization during microbial metabolism. MICP has been widely used as an …

A simultaneous denitrifying and mineralizing bacterium, Pseudomonas sp. WZ39 was
isolated for fluoride (F−), nitrate (NO 3−-N), and calcium (Ca 2+) removal. Strain WZ39 …

Virulence of pathogenic bacteria is a tightly controlled process to facilitate invasion and
survival in host tissues. Although pathways controlling virulence have been defined in detail …

Biofilms are aggregates of microorganisms embedded in an extracellular matrix comprised
largely of exopolysaccharides (EPSs), nucleic acids, and proteins. Pseudomonas …

Abstract Calcium (Ca 2+) is a universal signaling ion, whose major informational role
shaped the evolution of signaling pathways, enabling cellular communications and …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa easily adapts to newer environments and acquires several
genome flexibilities to overcome the effect of antibiotics during therapeutics, especially in …

Metal ions are essential for life and represent the second most abundant constituent (after
water) of any living cell. While the biological importance of inorganic ions has been …

Two-component systems (TCSs) of bacteria regulate many different aspects of the bacterial
life cycle, including pathogenesis. Most TCSs remain uncharacterized, with no information …

Biofilms are differentiated microbial communities held together by an extracellular matrix.
μCT X-ray revealed structured mineralized areas within biofilms of lung pathogens …
