Differential response to prey quorum signals indicates predatory range of myxobacteria

S. Akbar, S. K. Misra, J. S. Sharp, D. C. Stevens

This study compares how two predatory myxobacteria respond to different quorum signals from prey, revealing common and unique responses that suggest specialization in prey predation.

Predatory selection of mucoid, antibiotic resistant Pseudomonas putida phenotype by myxobacterium Cystobacter ferrugineus

S. Akbar, D. C. Stevens

The paper investigates Pseudomonas putida resistance to myxobacterial predation by Cystobacter ferrugineus, identifying traits like mucoid conversion and antibiotic resistance as key survival mechanisms.

Cryptic, solo acylhomoserine lactone synthase from predatory myxobacterium suggests beneficial contribution to prey quorum signaling

H. Albataineh, M. Duke, S. K. Misra, J. S. Sharp, D. C. Stevens

The paper identifies an orphaned AHL synthase from a predatory myxobacterium and shows it produces AHL signals under heterologous expression, suggesting a role in interspecies communication.
