Microbial biodiversity includes biotic and abiotic components that support all life forms by
adapting to environmental conditions. Climate change, pollution, human activity, and natural …

Rhamnolipids are a class of biosurfactants which contain rhamnose as the sugar moiety
linked to β-hydroxylated fatty acid chains. Rhamnolipids can be widely applied in many …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa produces extracellular DNA which functions as a cell‐to‐cell
interconnecting matrix component in biofilms. Comparison of extracellular DNA and …

Rhamnolipids are biosurfactants with a wide range of industrial applications that entered
into the market a decade ago. They are naturally produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa …

In Pseudomonas aeruginosa, diverse exoproduct virulence determinants are regulated via
N‐acylhomoserine lactone‐dependent quorum sensing. Here we show that 2‐heptyl‐3 …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa produces glycolipidic surface-active molecules (rhamnolipids)
which have potential biotechnological applications. Rhamnolipids are produced by P …

The process of detachment, through which bacteria use active mechanisms to leave biofilms
and return to the planktonic (free‐living) state, is perhaps the least understood aspect of the …

The transcriptional regulator MvfR is required for full Pseudomonas aeruginosa virulence,
the function of multiple quorum sensing (QS)‐regulated virulence factors and the synthesis …

In Escherichia coli and some other γ‐Proteobacteria, the alternative σ factor RpoS functions
as a regulator of the general stress response. The role of RpoS in Pseudomonas aeruginosa …

Bacterial populations frequently act as a collective by secreting a wide range of compounds
necessary for cell–cell communication, host colonization and virulence. How such …
