Teneale A. Stewart, Kunsala T.D.S. Yapa, Gregory R. Monteith Abstract It is the nature of the calcium signal, as determined by the coordinated activity of a suite of calcium channels, pumps, exchangers and binding proteins that ultimately guides a cell’s fate. Deregulation of the calcium signal is often deleterious and has been linked to each […]
Alice H. Tischler, Louise Lie, Cecilia M. Thompson, Karen L. Visick George O’Toole, Editor ABSTRACT Vibrio fischeri uses biofilm formation to promote symbiotic colonization of its squid host, Euprymna scolopes. Control over biofilm formation is exerted at the level of transcription of the symbiosis polysaccharide (syp) locus by a complex set of two-component regulators. Biofilm formation can be induced […]
