Chemotaxis, the ability of motile bacteria to direct their movement in gradients of attractants
and repellents, plays an important role during the rhizosphere colonization by rhizobacteria …

Bacteria have evolved many different signal transduction systems that sense signals and
generate a variety of responses. Generally, most abundant are transcriptional regulators …

Bacteria have evolved multiple signal transduction systems that permit an adaptation to
changing environmental conditions. Chemoreceptor-based signaling cascades are very …

Cyclic diguanylate (c-di-GMP) signal transduction systems provide bacteria with the ability to
sense changing cell status or environmental conditions and then execute suitable …

Many bacteria use quorum sensing (QS) to regulate virulence factor production in response
to changes in population density. QS is mediated through the production, secretion, and …

Bacteria possess various receptors that sense different signals and transmit information to
enable an optimal adaptation to the environment. A major limitation in microbiology is the …

Chemoreceptor-based signaling pathways are among the major modes of bacterial signal
transduction, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 is an important model to study their …

Histamine is a key biological signaling molecule. It acts as a neurotransmitter in the central
and peripheral nervous systems and coordinates local inflammatory responses by …

Bacterial signal transduction systems are typically activated by the binding of signal
molecules to receptor ligand binding domains (LBDs), such as the NIT LBD. We report here …

Chemotaxis towards root exudates and subsequent biofilm formation are very important for
root colonization and for providing the beneficial functions of plant growth-promoting …
