ABSTRACT Swarmer cells of the Gram-negative uropathogenic bacteria Proteus mirabilis and Vibrio parahaemolyticus become long (>10 to 100 μm) and multinucleate during their growth and motility on polymer surfaces. We demonstrated that the increasing

ABSTRACT Cardiolipin (CL) is an anionic phospholipid that plays an important role in regulating protein biochemistry in bacteria and mitochondria. Deleting the CL synthase gene (Δcls) in Rhodobacter sphaeroides depletes CL and decreases cell length

ABSTRACT The stiffness of bacteria prevents cells from bursting due to the large osmotic pressure across the cell wall. Many successful antibiotic chemotherapies target elements that alter mechanical properties of bacteria, and yet a global view of t

Microfluidic devices are used in a broad range of technological applications, from creating ingredients for cosmetics to discovering new medicines. The small size of microfluidic channels makes it possible to isolate individual cells, collections of

ABSTRACT Animal-microbe symbioses are ubiquitous in nature and scientifically important in diverse areas, including ecology, medicine, and agriculture. Steinernema nematodes and Xenorhabdus bacteria compose an established, successful model system for

We report the design and characterization of Fe-containing soft materials that respond to, interface with, and/or sequester Fe-chelating ‘siderophores’ that bacteria use to scavenge for iron and regulate iron homeostasis. We demonstrate that meta

Understanding how stochastic molecular fluctuations affect cell behavior requires the quantification of both behavior and protein numbers in the same cells. Here, we combine automated microscopy with in situ hydrogel polymerization to measure single-

A central question in cell biology is how cells respond to stress signals and biochemically regulate apoptosis. One critical pathway involves the change of mitochondrial function and release of cytochrome c to initiate apoptosis. In response to apopt

Due to its dense nanofibril network and inadequate biocompatibility, virgin bacterial cellulose (BC) has limitations in fulfilling the complex biological requirements of cartilage tissue engineering. To address these limits, we herein demonstrate the
