A LuxS-dependent cell-to-cell language regulates social behavior and development in Bacillus subtilis.
Cell-to-cell communication in bacteria is mediated by quorum-sensing systems (QSS) that produce chemical signal molecules called autoinducers (AI). In particular, LuxS/AI-2-dependent QSS has been proposed to act as a universal lexicon that mediates intra- and interspecific bacterial behavior. Here we report that the model organism Bacillus subtilis operates a luxS-dependent QSS that regulates i...
متن کاملHighly precise quantification of protein molecules per cell during stress and starvation responses in Bacillus subtilis.
Systems biology based on high quality absolute quantification data, which are mandatory for the simulation of biological processes, successively becomes important for life sciences. We provide protein concentrations on the level of molecules per cell for more than 700 cytosolic proteins of the Gram-positive model bacterium Bacillus subtilis during adaptation to changing growth conditions. As gl...
متن کاملCell wall peptidoglycan architecture in Bacillus subtilis.
The bacterial cell wall is essential for viability and shape determination. Cell wall structural dynamics allowing growth and division, while maintaining integrity is a basic problem governing the life of bacteria. The polymer peptidoglycan is the main structural component for most bacteria and is made up of glycan strands that are cross-linked by peptide side chains. Despite study and speculat...
متن کاملCell wall protein in Bacillus subtilis.
The cell wall of Bacillus subtilis 168 contains protein that is refractory to removal by salts, detergents, and denaturants.
متن کاملControl of cell length in Bacillus subtilis.
During inhibition of deoxyribonucleic acid synthesis in Bacillus subtilis 168 Thy-minus Tryp-minus, the rate of length extension is constant. A nutritional shift-up during thymine starvation causes an acceleration in the linear rate of length extension. During a nutritional shift-up in the presence of thymine, the rate of length extension gradually increases, reaching a new steady state at abou...
