The volcano effect in bacterial chemotaxis
A population-level model of bacterial chemotaxis is derived from a simple bacteriallevel model of behavior. This model, to be contrasted with the Keller-Segel equations, exhibits behavior we refer to as the “volcano effect”: steady-state bacterial aggregation forming a ring of higher density some distance away from an optimal environment. The model is derived, as in Erban and Othmer [7], from a...

Chemotaxis is the directed motion of an organism toward environmental conditions it deems attractive and/or away from surroundings it finds repellent. Movement of flagellated bacteria such as Escherichia coli can be characterized as a sequence of smooth-swimming runs punctuated by intermittent tumbles. Tumbles last only a fraction of a second, which is sufficient to effectively randomize the di...
متن کاملResponse rescaling in bacterial chemotaxis.
Sensory systems rescale their response sensitivity upon adaptation according to simple strategies that recur in processes as diverse as single-cell signaling, neural network responses, and whole-organism perception. Here, we study response rescaling in Escherichia coli chemotaxis, where adaptation dynamically tunes the cells' motile response during searches for nutrients. Using in vivo fluoresc...
متن کاملSpatial organization in bacterial chemotaxis.
Spatial organization of signalling is not an exclusive property of eukaryotic cells. Despite the fact that bacterial signalling pathways are generally simpler than those in eukaryotes, there are several well-documented examples of higher-order intracellular signalling structures in bacteria. One of the most prominent and best-characterized structures is formed by proteins that control bacterial...
