Integrin-like adhesin CglD confers traction and stabilizes bacterial focal adhesions involved in myxobacterial gliding motility

N. Y. Jolivet, E. Han, A. M. Belgrave, F. Saïdi, N. Koushki, D. J. Lemon, L. M. Faure, B. Fleuchot, U. Mahanta, H. Jiang, G. Sharma, J.-B. Fiche, B. P. Bratton, M. Diallo, B. Nan, , S. T. Islam

The paper identifies CglD as a β-integrin-like adhesin in Myxococcus xanthus that stabilizes bacterial focal adhesions and enables gliding motility through mechanosensory and mechanotransductory functions.

Bacterial outer-membrane polysaccharide export (OPX) proteins occupy three structural classes with selective β-barrel porin requirements for polymer secretion

F. Saïdi, U. Mahanta, A. Panda, N. Y. Jolivet, R. Bitazar, G. John, M. Martinez, A. Mellouk, C. Calmettes, Y.-W. Chang, G. Sharma, S. T. Islam

The paper identifies three structural classes of bacterial OPX proteins and shows that some use β-barrel porins for polysaccharide secretion when they cannot span the outer membrane.

Bacterial glycocalyx integrity drives multicellular swarm biofilm dynamism

F. Saidi, N. Y. Jolivet, D. J. Lemon, A. Nakamura, A. G. Garza, F. J. Veyrier, S. T. Islam

The paper shows that BPS secretion alters EPS glycocalyx stability, affecting cell motility and biofilm structure in M. xanthus.

CglB adhesins secreted at bacterial focal adhesions mediate gliding motility

S. T. Islam, L. My, N. Y. Jolivet, A. M. Belgrave, B. Fleuchot, G. Brasseur, L. M. Faure, G. Sharma, D. J. Lemon, F. Saidi, J.-B. Fiche, B. P. Bratton, M. Singer, A. G. Garza, M. Nollmann, , T. Mignot

The paper identifies CglB as a substratum-coupling protein secreted by the gliding complex in Myxococcus xanthus, revealing a mechanism for force transduction and a novel secretion process.

Modulation of bacterial multicellularity via spatiotemporal polysaccharide secretion

S. T. Islam, I. Vergara Alvarez, F. Saïdi, A. Giuseppi, E. Vinogradov, C. Morrone, G. Brasseur, G. Sharma, A. Benarouche, J.-L. Bridot, G. Ravicoularamin, A. Cagna, C. Gauthier, M. Singer, H.-P. Fierobe, , E. M. F. Mauriello

The paper shows that Myxococcus xanthus uses temporally and spatially controlled polysaccharide secretion to coordinate multicellular behaviors like swarm migration and biofilm formation.
