BolA promotes the generation of multicellular behavior in S. Typhimurium by regulating the c-di-GMP pathway genes yeaJ and yhjH

In conclusion, BolA mainly improves the content of extracellular polysaccharide by promoting the expression of yeaJ, thus enhancing the formation of biofilms. BolA also restricts flagellar synthesis by inhibiting yhjH expression, therefore reducing motility, ultimately promoting multicellular behavior arises. These findings lay a theoretical foundation for the prevention and control of S. Typhimurium.PMID:38101189 | DOI:10.1016/j.ijfoodmicro.2023.110518
