Biochemical Characterization of Escherichia coli PgaB, an Enzyme Essential for Biofilm Formation
The formation of bacterial biofilms requires an extracellular matrix to facilitate adherence of bacteria to the surface they colonize. Carbohydrate polymers, known as exopolysaccharides, form a key component of most biofilm matrices. A wide variety of medically-important biofilm forming bacterial st...
