Physical Determinants of Amyloid Assembly in Biofilm Formation
ABSTRACT A wide range of bacterial pathogens have been shown to form biofilms, which significantly increase their resistance to environmental stresses, such as antibiotics, and are thus of central importance in the context of bacterial diseases. One of the major structural components of these bacter...
