A Genome-Wide Analysis of Adhesion in <italic toggle="yes">Caulobacter crescentus</italic> Identifies New Regulatory and Biosynthetic Components for Holdfast Assembly
ABSTRACT Due to their intimate physical interactions with the environment, surface polysaccharides are critical determinants of fitness for bacteria. Caulobacter crescentus produces a specialized structure at one of its cell poles called the holdfast that enables attachment to surfaces. Previous stu...
