Our new study shows that a #phytopathogenic bacterium uses distinct #chemoreceptors to detect plant defence compounds, revealing an important role for #chemotaxis in plant #virulence. @krelllaboratory.bsky.social @gavirius.bsky.social @robertagenova.bsky.social journals.plos.org/plospathogen...

Chemotaxis to plant defense compounds in phytopathogens. Pathogen attack triggers the release of defense compounds by plants. Bacteria move chemotactically to these compounds.Nice collaboration with Ashleigh Holmes, @gavirius.bsky.social, @miguelmatilla.bsky.social journals.plos.org/plospathogen...

Chemotaxis to plant defense compounds in phytopathogens

Author summary Chemotaxis permits bacteria to move to sites that are favorable for survival and host colonization. A typical chemotactic response is initiated by the binding of chemoeffectors to chemo...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa Performs Chemotaxis to All Major Human Neurotransmitters

Schematic representation of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa chemoreceptors that mediate chemotaxis to ten different human neurotransmitters. Chemoeffectors in back were shown to bind directly to the dCach...

Ha sido un placer participar en el #MIP2025 #SEMicrobiologia en Granada! @krelllaboratory.bsky.social @eli-monteagudo.bsky.social

Disfrutando de unas magníficas jornadas en #MIP25 #SEMicrobiologia en Granada. Mucha ciencia puntera compartida con amigos @robertagenova.bsky.social @krelllaboratory.bsky.social

Very pleased to see that out in PNAS: Bacterial sensor evolved by decreasing complexity. Evolution is not always towards complexity. Yet another wonderful collaboration with @zhulinlab @gavirius and @miguel_matilla, @BLASTMeetings @SEMicrobiologia www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
