Role of carbohydrate metabolism in cell wall biosynthesis and multicellular development in Bacillus subtilis

Biofilms are complex multicellular bacterial communities encapsulated in a self-produced matrix which play a large role in the survival of bacteria within its natural environment. Matrix produced by the Gram-positive model organism Bacillus subtilis is comprised of a protein and a carbohydrate exopo...
