Abstract:The opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an environmental microorganism, which is notorious for its resistance or tolerance to antibiotics due to the formation of biofilms. Cyclic diguanosine monophosphate (c-di-GMP) is a bacterial second messenger that plays critical roles in biofilm formation. P. aeruginosa contains 41 genes that encode enzymes to participate in the metabolism of c-di-GMP (biosynthesis or degradation), yet it lacks tools to investigate the systemic expression pattern of those gen… Show more
