Rcs phosphorelay activation in cardiolipin-deficient Escherichia coli reduces biofilm formation
J. F. Nepper, Y. C. Lin, D. B. Weibel
This study shows that reducing cardiolipin in E. coli decreases biofilm formation by activating the Rcs phosphorelay, which disrupts flagella production and initial biofilm attachment.
