Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of Nutrient-Induced Dispersion in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 Biofilm
TL;DR: It is demonstrated here that dispersal of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 from biofilms is inducible by a sudden increase in carbon substrate availability and changes in gene expression associated with dispersion of P. aerug inosa correlates with a specific dispersal phenotype.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exopolysaccharide production in biofilms: substratum activation of alginate gene expression by Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
TL;DR: Reporter gene technology was employed to detect the activity of an alginate promoter of Pseudomonas aeruginosa when the organism was grown as a biofilm on a Teflon mesh substratum and as planktonic cells in liquid medium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regulation of the alginate biosynthesis gene algC in Pseudomonas aeruginosa during biofilm development in continuous culture.
David G. Davies,Gill G. Geesey +1 more
TL;DR: Reporter gene technology was used to observe the regulation of the alginate biosynthesis gene, algC in a mucoid strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in developing and mature biofilms in continuous culture on Teflon and glass substrata.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polyphosphate kinase is essential for biofilm development, quorum sensing, and virulence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa
M. Harunur Rashid,Kendra P. Rumbaugh,Luciano Passador,David G. Davies,Abdul N. Hamood,Barbara H. Iglewski,Arthur Kornberg +6 more
TL;DR: The conservation of PPK among many bacterial pathogens and its absence in eukaryotes suggest that PPK might be an attractive target for antimicrobial drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of Temporal Protein Production in Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilms
TL;DR: The results indicated that expression of theses genes was required for the progression of biofilms into three-dimensional structures on abiotic surfaces and the completion of the biofilm developmental cycle.
