Persisters: a distinct physiological state of E. coli (2006, background): “More recently, ygiU has been described as a global regulator that controls biofilm formation by inducing motility via the two-component regulatory system QseBC [23].”
Biofilms as Promoters of Bacterial Antibiotic Resistance and Tolerance (2020, background): “coli [103], and MqsA has been linked to the regulation of the general stress responses, such as oxidative stress [104].”
Bacterial Persister Cell Formation and Dormancy (2013, background): “Since TA systems control other TA systems to form a cascade related to persistence (14, 57) and both toxins (26, 58) and antitoxins (59, 60) are global regulators, TA systems form an intricate part of how the cell responds to stress.”
Biofilms (2013, background): “coli to aid in biofilm formation through quorum sensing.(36) Finally, there are some species-specific factors that may contribute to biofilm formation in those species uniquely, such as the c-diGMP system in F.”
Indole as an intercellular signal in microbial communities. (2010, background): “In E. coli (Table 3), exogenously supplied AI-2 increases biofilm formation at 37 1C (González Barrios et al., 2006), whereas indole decreases biofilm formation more significantly at 30 1C than at 37 1C (Lee et al., 2007b, 2008).”
Signals, Regulatory Networks, and Materials That Build and Break Bacterial Biofilms (2009, background): “Conditions such as the nutritional status of the environment and even the presence of conjugative plasmids can lead to quorum-sensing cues being bypassed or overridden (56, 105, 113, 264, 267).”
Cryptic prophages help bacteria cope with adverse environments (2010, methodology): “Total RNA was isolated using a bead beater ( Biospec ) and was converted into cDNAs through a reverse transcription reaction with poly(A) RNA control”
The Crp-Activated Small Noncoding Regulatory RNA CyaR (RyeE) Links Nutritional Status to Group Behavior (2008, background): “coli, including genes involved in biofilm formation and motility (14, 18, 33).”
