AgentCell: a digital single-cell assay for bacterial chemotaxis
MOTIVATION In recent years, single-cell biology has focused on the relationship between the stochastic nature of molecular interactions and variability of cellular behavior. To describe this relationship, it is necessary to develop new computational approaches at the single-cell level. RESULTS We have developed AgentCell, a model using agent-based technology to study the relationship between ...
متن کاملA high-throughput capillary assay for bacterial chemotaxis.
We present a high-throughput capillary assay in order to characterize the chemotactic response of the E. coli bacterium. We measure the number of organisms attracted into an array of 96 capillary tubes containing the attractant L-aspartate. The effect of bacterial concentration on the chemotactic response is reported. Such high-throughput assay can be used to characterize bacterial chemotaxis f...
متن کاملContinuous-flow capillary assay for measuring bacterial chemotaxis.
Bacterial chemotaxis may have a significant impact on the structure and function of bacterial communities. Quantification of chemotactic motion is necessary to identify chemoeffectors and to determine the bacterial transport parameters used in predictive models of chemotaxis. When the chemotactic bacteria consume the chemoeffector, the chemoeffector gradient to which the bacteria respond may be...
متن کاملA sensitive, versatile microfluidic assay for bacterial chemotaxis.
We have developed a microfluidic assay for bacterial chemotaxis in which a gradient of chemoeffectors is established inside a microchannel via diffusion between parallel streams of liquid in laminar flow. The random motility and chemotactic responses to L-aspartate, L-serine, L-leucine, and Ni(2+) of WT and chemotactic-mutant strains of Escherichia coli were measured. Migration of the cells was...
متن کاملCellular Receptors: Binding of Radioactively Labeled Anti-alloantiserum
RAT ALLOANTISERA OF THE FOLLOWING SPECIFICITIES WERE OBTAINED AFTER SINGLE SKIN GRAFT REJECTION: DA anti-BN, BN anti-DA, DA anti-Lewis, and Lewis anti-DA. Anti-alloantibodies were raised by injecting the first two alloantisera into (DA x BN)F(1) hosts and the last two alloantisera into (DA x Lewis)F(1) hosts. In this manner, four anti-alloantisera were raised: anti-(DA anti-BN), anti-(BN anti-D...
