A central role for carbon-overflow pathways in the modulation of bacterial cell death.

A central role for carbon-overflow pathways in the modulation of bacterial cell death.

Similar to developmental programs in eukaryotes, the death of a subpopulation of cells is thought to benefit bacterial biofilm development. However mechanisms that mediate a tight control over cell death are not clearly understood at the population level. Here we reveal that CidR dependent pyruvate...
