From cell differentiation to cell collectives: bacillus subtilis uses division of labor to migrate

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Jordi van Gestel et al. from the University Groningen, Groningen, The Netherlands have published the Article: From Cell Differentiation to Cell Collectives: Bacillus subtilis Uses Division of Labor to Migrate, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of December/16,/2014
  • what: The authors show how flagellum-independent migration is driven by the division labor two cell types that appear during Bacillus subtilis sliding motility. The authors show by time-course microscopy that these loops by pushing themselves away from the colony. The authors propose that surfactin-producing cells reduce the friction between cells and their substrate . . .
