Initiation of intracellular offspring in Epulopiscium.
Epulopiscium spp. are the largest heterotrophic bacteria yet described. A distinguishing feature of the Epulopiscium group is their viviparous production of multiple, internal offspring as a means of cellular reproduction. Based on their phylogenetic position, among low G + C Gram-positive endospore-forming bacteria, and the remarkable morphological similarity between developing endospores and ...
متن کاملNocturnal production of endospores in natural populations of epulopiscium-like surgeonfish symbionts.
Prior studies have described a morphologically diverse group of intestinal microorganisms associated with surgeonfish. Despite their diversity of form, 16S rRNA gene surveys and fluorescent in situ hybridizations indicate that these bacteria are low-G+C gram-positive bacteria related to Epulopiscium spp. Many of these bacteria exhibit an unusual mode of reproduction, developing multiple offspri...

متن کاملChemotaxis in bacteria.
Bacterial chemotaxis, the movement of motile bacteria toward or away from chemicals, was discovered nearly a century ago by Engelmann (1) and Pfeffer (2,3). The subject was actively studied for about 50 years, but then there were very few reports until quite recently. For reviews of the literature up to about 1960, see Berg (4), Weibull (5), and Ziegler (6). The present review will restrict its...
متن کاملChemotaxis in Vibrio cholerae.
The ability of motile bacteria to swim toward or away from specific environmental stimuli, such as nutrients, oxygen, or light provides cells with a survival advantage, especially under nutrient-limiting conditions. This behavior, called chemotaxis, is mediated by the bacteria changing direction by briefly reversing the direction of rotation of the flagellar motors. A sophisticated signal trans...
