In silico design, in vitro construction and in vivo application of synthetic small regulatory RNAs in bacteria
Michel Brueck, Bork A. Berghoff, Daniel Schindler
Small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) are short non-coding RNAs in bacteria capable of post-transcriptional regulation. sRNAs have recently gained attention as tools in basic and applied s…
CRISPR SWAPnDROP -- A multifunctional system for genome editing and large-scale interspecies gene transfer
Marc Teufel, Carlo A. Klein, Maurice Mager +1
The need for diverse chromosomal modifications in biotechnology, synthetic biology and basic research requires the development of new technologies. With CRISPR SWAPnDROP, we extend…
Swimming of bacterium \textit{Bacillus subtilis} with multiple bundles of flagella
Javad Najafi, Florian Altegoer, Gert Bange +1
We characterize the bundle properties for three different strains of \textit{B. subtilis} bacteria with various numbers of flagella. Our study reveals that, surprisingly, the numbe…
Flagellar number governs bacterial spreading and transport efficiency
Javad Najafi, M. Reza Shaebani, Thomas John +3
Peritrichous bacteria synchronize and bundle their flagella to actively swim while disruption of the bundle leads to tumbling. It is still not known whether the number of flagella…
Front-propagation in bacterial inter-colony communication
Vera Bettenworth, Matthew McIntosh, Anke Becker +1
Many bacterial species exchange signaling molecules to coordinate population-wide responses. For this process known as quorum sensing the concentration of the respective molecules…
Drift and behavior of E. coli cells
Gabriele Micali, Remy Colin, Victor Sourjik +1
Chemotaxis of the bacterium Escherichia coli is well understood in shallow chemical gradients, but its swimming behavior remains difficult to interpret in steep gradients. By focus…
A mechanical model for guided motion of mammalian cells
Patrick Bitter, Kristof Leon Beck, Peter Lenz
We introduce a generic, purely mechanical model for environment sensitive motion of mammalian cells that is applicable to chemotaxis, haptotaxis, and durotaxis as modes of motility…
Stripe formation in bacterial systems with density-suppressed motility
Xiongfei Fu, Lei-Han Tang, Chenli Liu +3
Engineered bacteria in which motility is reduced by local cell density generate periodic stripes of high and low density when spotted on agar plates. We study theoretically the ori…
