Bacteria have developed a large array of motility mechanisms to exploit available resources
and environments. These mechanisms can be broadly classified into swimming in aqueous …

Motility often plays a decisive role in the survival of species. Five systems of motility have
been studied in depth: those propelled by bacterial flagella, eukaryotic actin polymerization …

Bacteria of the genus Pseudomonas are ubiquitous in nature. Pseudomonads display a
fascinating metabolic diversity, which correlates with their ability to colonize an extremely …

As more environmental contaminants emerging, antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes
(ARGs) have caused a substantial increase of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in …

The emergency of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in severe infections is increasing, especially
in nosocomial environments. The ESKAPE group is of special importance in the groups of …

Skin and wound infections are serious medical problems, and the diversity of bacteria
makes such infections difficult to treat. Bacteria possess many virulence factors, among …

Many bacteria grow on surfaces in nature, where they form cell collectives that compete for
space. Within these collectives, cells often secrete molecules that benefit surface spreading …

Over millions of years, Nature has optimized the motion of biological systems at the micro
and nanoscales. Motor proteins to motile single cells have managed to overcome Brownian …

Soil bacteria are prolific producers of a myriad of biologically active secondary metabolites.
These natural products play key roles in modern society, finding use as anti-cancer agents …

A new strain, namely Lysinibacillus sp. BV152. 1 was isolated from the rhizosphere of
ground ivy (Glechoma hederacea L.) producing metabolites with potent ability to inhibit …
