... experiments, and it has recently been shown that C. albicans responds directly to LPS [39,40]. In addition, bacterial peptidoglycan molecules present in human serum induce hyphae formation in C. albicans, promoting tissue invasion and pathogenesis by this species [41]. C. albicans can also increase ...

However, these bacteria were rare as free-living organisms in the culture medium, making this hypothesis unlikely. Additionally, the FISH signal obse ...

... Mycobacteria are acid fast. Their cell wall is hydrophobic. They stain neither violet, nor red; they do not stain at all. Sometimes we describe them as „Gram-non-staining bacteria“ Mycoplasmas have no cell wall at all, but their cytoplasm stains weakly red. Nevertheless, they are poorly visible (als ...

Quorum sensing



Quorum sensing is a system of stimulae and response correlated to population density. Many species of bacteria use quorum sensing to coordinate gene expression according to the density of their local population. In similar fashion, some social insects use quorum sensing to determine where to nest. In addition to its function in biological systems, quorum sensing has several useful applications for computing and robotics.Quorum sensing can function as a decision-making process in any decentralized system, as long as individual components have: (a) a means of assessing the number of other components they interact with and (b) a standard response once a threshold number of components is detected.
