Two-Component Signal Transduction Systems: A Major Strategy for Connecting Input Stimuli to Biofilm Formation
Biofilms are multicellular communities of microbes that are encased within an extracellular matrix. Environmental factors induce bacteria to form biofilm. Bacteria have several regulatory mechanisms in response to environmental changes, and the two-component signal transduction system (TCS) is a maj...
