Vibrio cholerae is a pathogenic bacterium and the causative agent of the diarrheal disease cholera. V. cholerae is thought to persist in the environment in the form of a biofilm. Biofilm formation is regulated by signals ranging from self produced ... |
Characterization of the norspermidine/spermidine ABC-type transporter, PotABCD1, in Vibrio cholerae |
2015 |
1672 |
Vibrio cholerae is an intestinal pathogen that also thrives in aquatic environments through forming biofilms, matrix-bound aggregation of cells offering physical protection from many environmental stressors. Formation of biofilm can be regulated by ... |
The Effect of Polyamines on Vibrio cholerae Virulence Properties |
2012 |
2456 |
Vibrio cholerae is the causative agent of the severe enteric disease, cholera. To be a virulent strain, the bacterium must be able to synthesize both cholera toxin and toxin-coregulated pilus (TCP). TCP has been shown to mediate microcolony formati... |
Characterization of Protein-Protein Interaction Within a Polyamine Responsive Signaling System in Vibrio Cholerae |
2012 |
2811 |
The Gram-negative bacterium Vibrio cholerae is a natural inhabitant of aquatic environments and the causative agent of the severe diarrheal disease cholera. This bacterium is able to form biofilms on both abiotic and biotic surfaces. Biofilm formatio... |
Characterization of the Norspermidine/Spermidine Transport Protein, PotD1, in Vibrio cholerae |
2012 |
2599 |
Biofilm formation increases antibiotic resistance among bacteria; therefore, a thorough understanding of the proteins and molecules affecting biofilm formation is necessary. PotD1, the substrate binding protein of the PotABCD1 spermidine transport sy... |
Investigating The Role Of Putrescine Transport And Biosynthesis In Vibrio Cholerae Biofilm Formation. |
2016 |

Biofilms are structures formed by most bacteria, and in Vibrio cholerae they provide protection and passage through the gastric acid barrier. V. cholerae is the causative agent of the cholera disease. Formation of biofilms is regulated by a wide vari... |
Characterization of the NspS-MbaA signaling system controlling biofilm formation from polyamine input to phenotypic output |
2015 |
1104 |
Biofilm formation plays a critical role in the infectious cycle of the bacterial pathogen, Vibrio cholerae. The polyamine, norspermidine, has a positive influence on biofilm formation while spermidine has the opposite effect. These influences occur t... |

This study further characterizes the Vibrio cholerae norspermidine/spermidine ABC-type transporter PotABCD1. The role of this transporter in biofilm formation is relevant to two diverse phases of the V. cholerae life cycle: survival in the aquatic e... |
The Role Of SpeG In Vibrio Cholerae Biofilm Formation |
2017 |
1667 |
Vibrio cholerae is a Gram-negative, aquatic bacterium responsible for the human disease cholera. Illness typically results from ingestion of the bacterium in its biofilm form. It is known that polyamines regulate biofilm formation. V. cholerae can up... |
A Novel Mutagenic Screen Reveals A Model For Interaction Between The Biofilm Regulatory Proteins NspS And MbaA In Vibrio Cholerae |
2019 |

The transition between motility and biofilm formation is important to the lifecycle of the human pathogen Vibrio cholerae, which causes the disease cholera. Polyamines are ubiquitous, organic molecules and an example of one environmental signal that ... |
NspS, A PotD1 Homolog, Acts as a Spermidine Signal Sensor, Not a Transporter, in Vibrio Cholera |
2010 |
1902 |
Biofilm formation is important for the survival of Vibrio cholerae in its natural aquatic environments and within the human intestinal tract. We have previously shown that the absence of PotD1, the periplasmic binding protein for the spermidine ABC t... |
