Non-uniform growth and surface friction determine bacterial biofilm morphology on soft substrates
Chenyi Fei, Sheng Mao, Jing Yan +5
During development, organisms acquire three-dimensional shapes with important physiological consequences. While the basic mechanisms underlying morphogenesis are known in eukaryote…
Verticalization of bacterial biofilms
Farzan Beroz, Jing Yan, Yigal Meir +4
Biofilms are communities of bacteria adhered to surfaces. Recently, biofilms of rod-shaped bacteria were observed at single-cell resolution and shown to develop from a disordered,…
Measurement of the copy number of the master quorum-sensing regulator of a bacterial cell
Shu-Wen Teng, Yufang Wang, Kimberly C. Tu +5
Quorum sensing is the mechanism by which bacteria communicate and synchronize group behaviors. Quantitative information on parameters such as the copy number of particular quorum-s…
Information processing and signal integration in bacterial quorum sensing
Pankaj Mehta, Sidhartha Goyal, Tao Long +2
Bacteria communicate using secreted chemical signaling molecules called autoinducers in a process known as quorum sensing. The quorum-sensing network of the marine bacterium {\it V…
