Heterogeneity in surface sensing suggests a division of labor in Pseudomonas aeruginosa populations

Heterogeneity in surface sensing suggests a division of labor in Pseudomonas aeruginosa populations

The second messenger signaling molecule cyclic diguanylate monophosphate (c-di-GMP) drives the transition between planktonic and biofilm growth in many bacterial species. Pseudomonas aeruginosa has two surface sensing systems that produce c-di-GMP in response to surface adherence. Current thinking i...
