Cellulose biosynthesis enterobacteriaceae

Cellulose production confers bacterial cell-cell interactions, adhesion to abiotic surfaces (biofilm formation) and chlorine resistance to the organism (Romling et al. 2000 Zogaj et al. 2001 Solano et al. 2002). Beginning studies shed some light on the molecular mechanisms of cellulose biosynthesis and regulation in S. typhimurium and the epidemiology of cellulose biosynthesis in Enterobacteriaceae. [Pg.109]

BcsQ which is required for cellulose biosynthesis in vivo, is part of the cellulose biosynthesis operon in Enterobacteriaceae and G. xylinus. BcsC contains a N-terminal membrane domain and several tetratrico peptide repeats (TRPs) motifs, indicating that it might participate in protein-protein interactions. [Pg.111]

Recently, the molecular basis of cellulose biosynthesis has been detected in S. typhimurium and other Enterobacteriaceae. With this discovery, however, new questions did arise concerning various aspects such as the mode of cellulose biosynthesis, its regulation, function, epidemiology, structure and interaction of cellulose with other components. At present, answers are only partially available, if at all. The availability of well characterized and fully sequenced strains together with efficient tools for genetic manipulation, however, gives hope that fairly soon light will be shed at least to some aspects of cellulose biosynthesis in Enterobacteriaceae. [Pg.119]
