Heterogeneity in surface sensing produces a division of labor in Pseudomonas aeruginosa populations

Catherine R. Armbruster, +11 more
- 29 Jan 2019 - 
TL;DR: This work describes how the Wsp system generates heterogeneity in surface sensing, resulting in two physiologically distinct subpopulations of cells, and shows that this heterogeneity strongly correlates to surface behavior for descendent cells.

Extended hopanoid loss reduces bacterial motility and surface attachment and leads to heterogeneity in root nodule growth kinetics in a Bradyrhizobium-Aeschynomene symbiosis

Brittany J. Belin, +4 more
- 18 Dec 2018 - 
TL;DR: This work provides a quantitative reference point for understanding the phenotypic diversity of ineffective symbionts in A. afraspera and identifies specific developmental stages affected by extended hopanoid loss for future mechanistic work.
Journal Article

Interaction of Arginine-Rich Peptides with Model Cell Membranes

Abhijit Mishra, +5 more
- 13 Mar 2008 - 
Journal Article

Evolution of growth modes for polyelectrolyte bundles

Ghee Hwee Lai, +3 more
- 14 Mar 2006 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the kinetics of aggregation and bundle formation of actin are tracked using two different fluorescently labeled populations of F-actin, and it is found that the growth mode of these bundles evolves with time and salt concentration, varying from an initial lateral growth to a longitudinal one at later stages.

Fine tuning cyclic-di-GMP signaling in Pseudomonas aeruginosa using the type 4 pili alignment complex

Shanice S. Webster, +4 more
- 17 Oct 2020 - 
TL;DR: A key implication of this work is that more than just regulating signal levels, cells must modulate the dynamic range of cyclic-di-GMP to precisely control the transition to a biofilm lifestyle.
