Species-Independent Attraction to Biofilms through Electrical Signaling
Jacqueline Humphries,Liyang Xiong,Jintao Liu,Arthur Prindle,Fang Yuan,Heidi A. Arjes,Lev S. Tsimring,Gürol M. Süel +7 more
TL;DR: It is found that potassium ion channel-mediated electrical signaling generated by a Bacillus subtilis biofilm can attract distant cells and influence the behavior of diverse bacteria at a distance through long-range electrical signaling.
Journal ArticleDOI
A stabilized microbial ecosystem of self-limiting bacteria using synthetic quorum-regulated lysis.
TL;DR: The ‘ortholysis’ approach establishes a paradigm for constructing synthetic ecologies by developing stable communities of competitive microorganisms without the need for engineered co-dependency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flower-like patterns in multi-species bacterial colonies
TL;DR: A more elaborate two-dimensional phase-field model that explicitly accounts for the interplay between growth, mechanical stress from the motile species, and friction provided by the non-motiles species, fully reproduces the observed flower-like patterns.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adaptation with transcriptional regulation.
TL;DR: This work systematically studied three-node transcriptional regulatory networks (TRNs), with three different types of gene regulation logics, and found that the topologies of adaptive gene regulatory networks can still be grouped into two general classes: negative feedback loop and incoherent feed-forward loop, but with some distinct topological features comparing to the enzymatic networks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coexistence and Pattern Formation in Bacterial Mixtures with Contact-Dependent Killing.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a population dynamics model for two interacting bacterial strains and found that coexistence can be made possible by the interplay of contact-dependent killing and long-range growth inhibition, leading to the formation of various cellular patterns.
