EXTRACELLULAR DNA IS ESSENTIAL FOR MAINTAINING BORDETELLA BIOFILM INTEGRITY ON ABIOTIC SURFACES AND IN THE UPPER RESPIRATORY TRACT OF MICE.

Extracellular DNA is essential for maintaining Bordetella biofilm integrity on abiotic surfaces and in the upper respiratory tract of mice.

Bacteria form complex and highly elaborate surface adherent communities known as biofilms which are held together by a self-produced extracellular matrix.We have previously shown that by adopting a biofilm mode of existence in vivo, the gram negative bacterial pathogens Bordetella bronchiseptica and Bordetella pertussis are able to efficiently colo

Xylose and shikimate transporters facilitates microbial consortium as a chassis for benzylisoquinoline alkaloid production

Abstract Plant-sourced aromatic amino acid (AAA) derivatives are a vast group of compounds with broad applications.Here, we present the development of a yeast consortium for efficient production of (S)-norcoclaurine, the key precursor for benzylisoquinoline alkaloid biosynthesis.A xylose transporter enables the concurrent mixed-sugar utilization in

Pythagorean m-Polar Fuzzy Weighted Aggregation Operators and Algorithm for the Investment Strategic Decision Making

The role of multipolar uncertain statistics cannot be unheeded while confronting daily life problems NIKE on well-founded basis.Fusion (aggregation) of a number of input values in multipolar form into a sole multipolar output value is an essential tool not merely of physics or mathematics but also of widely held problems of economics, commerce and
