Journal ArticleDOI
Biofilms: an emergent form of bacterial life.
Hans-Curt Flemming,Jost Wingender,Ulrich Szewzyk,Peter D. Steinberg,Scott A. Rice,Staffan Kjelleberg +5 more
TL;DR: The fundamental role of the biofilm matrix is considered, describing how the characteristic features of biofilms — such as social cooperation, resource capture and enhanced survival of exposure to antimicrobials — all rely on the structural and functional properties of the matrix.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inhibition of quorum sensing in Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm bacteria by a halogenated furanone compound.
Morten Hentzer,Kathrin Riedel,Thomas Bovbjerg Rasmussen,Arne Heydorn,Jens Bo Andersen,Matthew R. Parsek,Scott A. Rice,Leo Eberl,Søren Molin,Niels Høiby,Staffan Kjelleberg,Michael Givskov +11 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the furanone compound specifically represses expression of a PlasB-gfp reporter fusion without affecting growth or protein synthesis, indicating a general effect on target genes of the las quorum sensing circuit.
Journal ArticleDOI
Should we stay or should we go: mechanisms and ecological consequences for biofilm dispersal.
Diane McDougald,Diane McDougald,Scott A. Rice,Scott A. Rice,Nicolas Barraud,Peter D. Steinberg,Staffan Kjelleberg,Staffan Kjelleberg +7 more
TL;DR: Recent progress in this emerging field is reviewed and it is suggested that the merging of detailed molecular mechanisms with ecological theory will significantly advance understanding of biofilm biology and ecology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Involvement of Nitric Oxide in Biofilm Dispersal of Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Nicolas Barraud,Daniel J. Hassett,Sung Hei Hwang,Scott A. Rice,Staffan Kjelleberg,Jeremy S. Webb,Jeremy S. Webb +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that exposure to SNP greatly enhanced the efficacy of antimicrobial compounds in the removal of established P. aeruginosa biofilms from a glass surface and combined exposure to both NO and antimicrobial agents may offer a novel strategy to control preestablished, persistent P. aerobicaerobic bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI
The genomic basis of trophic strategy in marine bacteria.
Federico M. Lauro,Diane McDougald,Torsten Thomas,Timothy J. Williams,Suhelen Egan,Scott A. Rice,Matthew Z. DeMaere,Lily Ting,Haluk Ertan,Haluk Ertan,Justin Johnson,Steven Ferriera,Alla Lapidus,Iain Anderson,Nikos C. Kyrpides,A. Christine Munk,Chris Detter,Cliff Han,Mark V. Brown,Frank T. Robb,Staffan Kjelleberg,Ricardo Cavicchioli +21 more
TL;DR: This work compares the genome sequences of two bacteria, Photobacterium angustum S14 and Sphingopyxis alaskensis RB2256, that serve as useful model organisms for copiotrophic and oligotrophic modes of life and relates the genomic features to trophic strategy for these organisms and defines their molecular mechanisms of adaptation.
