This study examines the ecological role of Myxococcota in soil habitats, finding they are more abundant and diverse in field soil than in sand biofilters, with distinct interaction patterns.

The paper shows how spatial pattern transitions in Myxococcus xanthus swarms occur through local alignment and cell reversal, without genetic changes, creating stable spatial domains.

The paper investigates the role of RomRX and MglB in regulating cell polarity in Myxococcus xanthus, showing RomRX acts as an effector of MglAGTP and competes with MglB to modulate complex stability.

The paper shows that two distinct motility systems in Myxococcus xanthus work together to enhance cell movement, with calcium regulating their contribution.

This study identifies HAMP domains in FrzCD that modulate DNA binding and oligomerization, affecting bacterial social behavior and array plasticity.

This study identifies genetic and metabolic adaptations in Myxococcus xanthus that enhance bacterial predation by activating fatty acid metabolism and antioxidant responses.

This study visualizes peptidoglycan layers in gliding diderm bacteria using electron microscopy, revealing structural differences that may explain force transmission during locomotion.

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.
