CsrA and its regulators control the time-point of ColicinE2 release in Escherichia coli
Alexandra Götz, Matthias Lechner, Andreas Mader +3
The bacterial SOS response is a cellular reaction to DNA damage, that, among other actions, triggers the expression of colicin - toxic bacteriocins in Escherichia coli that are rel…
Interactions mediated by a public good transiently increase cooperativity in growing Pseudomonas putida metapopulations
Felix Becker, Karl Wienand, Matthias Lechner +2
Bacterial communities have rich social lives. A well-established interaction involves the exchange of a public good in Pseudomonas populations, where the iron-scavenging compound p…
Ecological feedback in quorum-sensing microbial populations can induce heterogeneous production of autoinducers
Matthias Bauer, Johannes Knebel, Matthias Lechner +2
Autoinducers are small signaling molecules that mediate intercellular communication in microbial populations and trigger coordinated gene expression via "quorum sensing". Elucidati…
Non-selective evolution of growing populations
Karl Wienand, Matthias Lechner, Felix Becker +2
Non-selective effects, like genetic drift, are an important factor in modern conceptions of evolution, and have been extensively studied for constant population sizes. Here, we con…
