The biofilm matrix: multitasking in a shared space

Hans-Curt Flemming et al.

Summary: In this review, the authors revisit the understanding of the biofilm matrix and discuss the diversity of its components and the novel aspects of their functional interactions. The biofilm matrix plays a crucial role in stabilizing microbial cells and fulfilling various functions. It is dynamic and influenced by physico-chemical and biological interactions as well as environmental conditions.

Large-Scale Discovery of Microbial Fibrillar Adhesins and Identification of Novel Members of Adhesive Domain Families

Vivian Monzon et al.

Summary: In this study, a machine learning approach was developed to identify fibrillar adhesins and novel members of adhesive domain families. The method successfully predicted over 6,500 confident fibrillar adhesins and identified 15 clusters with structural similarity to known adhesive domains. This research contributes to our understanding of bacterium-host interactions and bacterial pathogenesis.

Discovery of fibrillar adhesins across bacterial species

Vivian Monzon et al.

Summary: This study characterizes fibrillar adhesins in various bacterial phyla and identifies new proteins in this class. Through domain analysis, it is shown that fibrillar adhesins have complex architectures which vary across species. The research expands the understanding of host-bacteria interactions and provides a repository for further studies on bacterial surface proteins.

Periscope Proteins are variable-length regulators of bacterial cell surface interactions

Fiona Whelan et al.

Summary: Changes at the cell surface enable bacteria to survive in dynamic environments, with Periscope Proteins identified as a common mechanism for bacterial surface alteration through protein length variation. These proteins, forming elongated rod-like structures, can have over 50 distinct variants implicated in host colonization and biofilm formation. While sequence divergence in large multidomain proteins may reduce misfolding between domains, Periscope Proteins break this rule and suggest that their length variability is crucial in regulating bacterial interactions with host surfaces and the immune system.

Architecture of cell-cell junctions in situ reveals a mechanism for bacterial biofilm inhibition

Charlotte E. Melia et al.

Summary: Bacteria, such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, form multicellular biofilm communities where cell-cell interactions are mediated by CdrA molecules tethering cells together through polysaccharide binding partners. Targeting functional CdrA molecules with nanobodies could inhibit bacterial biofilm formation or disrupt preexisting biofilms, showing promise in preventing or treating chronic bacterial infections.

The role of Psl in the failure to eradicate Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms in children with cystic fibrosis

Amanda J. Morris et al.

Summary: The exopolysaccharide Psl plays a role in biofilm structure and antibiotic tolerance, possibly contributing to the failure of Pseudomonas aeruginosa eradication in cystic fibrosis airways. An increase in Psl0096 binding was associated with bacterial aggregation and tobramycin tolerance in P. aeruginosa isolates from children who failed antibiotic eradication therapy. The biofilm matrix could be a potential therapeutic target to improve P. aeruginosa eradication treatment.
