Vibrio biofilms: so much the same yet so different

Open access
Yildiz, Fitnat H., Visick, Karen L.·2009·Trends in Microbiology

Abstract

Vibrios are natural inhabitants of aquatic environments and form symbiotic or pathogenic relationships with eukaryotic hosts. Recent studies reveal that the ability of vibrios to form biofilms – i.e. matrix-enclosed, surface-associated communities– depends upon specific structural genes (flagella, pili, and exopolysaccharide biosynthesis) and regulatory processes (two-component regulators, quorum sensing, and c-di-GMP signaling). In this review, we compare and contrast mechanisms and regulation of biofilm formation by Vibrio species, with a focus on Vibrio cholerae, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Vibrio vulnificus, and Vibrio fischeri. While many aspects are the same, others differ dramatically. Critical questions that remain to be answered regarding the molecular underpinnings of Vibrio biofilm formation will also be discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
