The Role of Polyphosphate in Motility, Adhesion, and Biofilm Formation in <i>Sulfolobales</i>

The Role of Polyphosphate in Motility, Adhesion, and Biofilm Formation in <i>Sulfolobales</i>

Polyphosphates (polyP) are polymers of orthophosphate residues linked by high-energy phosphoanhydride bonds that are important in all domains of life and function in many different processes, including biofilm development. To study the effect of polyP in archaeal biofilm formation, our previously de...
