Chlamydia uses k+ electrical signalling to orchestrate host sensing, inter-bacterial communication and differentiation

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Susan C. Andrew and collaborators from the Institute of Structural and Molecular Biology, University College London and Birkbeck, Malet Street, Mint Diagnostics, Unit, b Kent Science Park, Sittingbourne , GA, UK have published the paper: Chlamydia Uses K+ Electrical Signalling to Orchestrate Host Sensing, Inter-Bacterial Communication and Differentiation, in the Journal: Microorganisms 2021, 173 of /2021/
• what: Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic kingdoms exploit ion-based electrical signalling for fast intercellular Here the authors demonstrate that RBs specifically accumulate potassium (K+ ) ions generating a gradient. Using photobleaching approaches the authors establish that the RB is . . .
