Cultivated meat is emerging to replace traditional livestock industries, which have ecological
costs, including land and water overuse and considerable carbon emissions. During …

Electrically conductive appendages from the anaerobic bacterium Geobacter
sulfurreducens, recently identified as extracellular cytochrome nanowires (ECNs), have …

Numerous bacteria naturally occur within spatially organised, multicellular communities
called biofilms. Moreover, most bacterial infections proceed with biofilm formation, posing …

Inoviruses are filamentous phages infecting numerous prokaryotic phyla. Inoviruses can self-
assemble into mesoscale structures with liquid-crystalline order, termed tactoids, which …

The complex and dynamic compositions of biofilms, along with their sophisticated structural
assembly mechanisms, endow them with exceptional capabilities to thrive in diverse …

Studying mechanisms of bacterial biofilm generation is of vital importance to understanding
bacterial cell–cell communication, multicellular cohabitation principles, and the higher …

Pellicle biofilm-forming bacteria Bacillus amyloliquefaciens are the major spoilage
microorganisms of soy products. Due to their inherent resistance to antibiotics and …

We present a multidimensional magic-angle spinning (MAS) solid-state NMR (ssNMR) study
to characterize native Pseudomonas fluorescens colony biofilms at natural abundance …

Chaperone-Usher Pathway (CUP) pili are major adhesins in Gram-negative bacteria,
mediating bacterial adherence to biotic and abiotic surfaces. While classical CUP pili have …

Despite great progress in the field, chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa) infections remain
a major cause of mortality in patients with cystic fibrosis (pwCF), necessitating treatment with …
