Pseudomonas aeruginosa Uses c-di-GMP Phosphodiesterases RmcA and MorA To Regulate Biofilm Maintenance

S. Katharios-Lanwermeyer et al.

Summary: Maintenance of mature biofilms in Pseudomonas aeruginosa requires the enzymes encoded by rmcA and morA genes, as mutants lacking these enzymes fail to respond appropriately to nutrient limitation and cannot sustain the biofilm. The findings suggest a vital role of c-di-GMP-mediated regulation in enabling P. aeruginosa biofilms to effectively adapt to changing nutrient availability, highlighting the importance of specific phosphodiesterases for biofilm maintenance compared to their role in biofilm formation.

The determinants of survival among adults with cystic fibrosis-a cohort study

Magdalena Durda-Masny et al.

Summary: The study showed that factors such as mutation type, lung function, Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection, and nutritional status significantly impact the survival rate of patients with cystic fibrosis, with the most critical period being between 30-40 years of age.

Polygenic Adaptation and Clonal Interference Enable Sustained Diversity in Experimental Pseudomonas aeruginosa Populations

Katrina B. Harris et al.

Summary: Evolution and diversification of Pseudomonas aeruginosa populations in biofilm-promoting environments show that adaptation and genetic variation are maintained without the usual elimination of diversity by fixation events. Multiple mutations are preserved at intermediate frequencies, suggesting that some environments may expose a larger fraction of the genome and select for many adaptations at once. This challenges the conventional idea that strong selection would normally purge genetic and phenotypic diversity.

Common Adaptive Strategies Underlie Within-Host Evolution of Bacterial Pathogens

Yair E. Gatt et al.

Summary: Within-host adaptation in chronic bacterial infections involves substantial genomic changes. Different species share common adaptive strategies, often driven by the host immune system. The ubiquity of adaptive strategies across species reveals key evolutionary changes.
