The Extracellular Matrix of <named-content content-type="genus-species">Staphylococcus aureus</named-content> Biofilms Comprises Cytoplasmic Proteins That Associate with the Cell Surface in Response to Decreasing pH
ABSTRACT Biofilm formation by Staphylococcus aureus involves the formation of an extracellular matrix, but the composition of this matrix has been uncertain. Here we report that the matrix is largely composed of cytoplasmic proteins that reversibly associate with the cell surface in a manner that de...
