Classic Spotlight: Dawn of the Molecular Era of Bacterial Chemotaxis.
Chemotaxis—movement toward or away from a chemical—is a universal behavior of motile cells and organisms. Pioneering work in the last few decades of the 1800s, notably by Engelmann, Pfeffer, and Beijerinck, first demonstrated chemotactic and aerotactic behaviors in bacteria. See reference 1 for an intriguing summary of those early studies, which were largely overlooked for the next 50 years or ...
متن کاملClassic Spotlight: Visualization of Bacterial Genes in Action.
In the 1960s, Oscar Miller and his colleagues at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (and later at the University of Virginia) perfected a technique for direct visualization of transcription from eukaryotic chromosomes in situ by transmission electron microscopy. This method, sometimes referred to as “Miller spreads,” was then applied to questions about transcription in bacterial cells (1). Several o...
متن کاملClassic Spotlight: Bacterial Endospore Resistance, Structure, and Genetics.
Bacterial spore formation has a major impact on medicine and agriculture, and its analysis has uncovered new paradigms for understanding bacterial physiology, cell biology, and gene regulation. The existence of bacterial endospores was recognized in the 1800s by both Maximilian Perty and Louis Pasteur, and spore formation and germination in Bacillus were reported by Ferdinand Cohn and by Robert...
متن کاملJournal of Bacteriology
Limit the abstract to 250 words or fewer and concisely summarize the basic content of the paper without presenting extensive experimental details. Avoid abbreviations and references, and do not include diagrams. When it is essential to include a reference, use the same format as shown for the References section but omit the article title. Because the abstract will be published separately by abs...
متن کاملClassic Spotlight: Discovery of ftsZ.
Cytokinesis (cell division, fission, and septation) in bacteria is driven by a ring-shaped organelle containing dozens of distinct proteins. Among these, FtsZ plays preeminent roles in assembly and function of the organelle. FtsZ is also the first recognized cytoskeletal protein in prokaryotes and the likely progenitor of the tubulins. The discovery of ftsZ was inherently important. It also nic...
