Many bacteria in nature exist in multicellular communities termed biofilms, where cells are embedded in an extracellular matrix that provides rigidity to the biofilm and protects cells …
Bacterial and fungal adhesins mediate microbial aggregation, biofilm formation, and adhesion to host. We divide these proteins into two major classes: professional adhesins …

Many bacteria in nature exist in multicellular communities termed biofilms. Cells within biofilms are embedded in a primarily self-secreted extracellular polymeric matrix that …
Various organisms, including bacteria, protists, fungi, plants, and animals, secrete proteins and peptides that self-assemble into ordered amyloid fibrils that perform different …
