Chemotaxis in bacteria is an excellent model for signal transduction processes. In Agrobacterium tumefaciens, the causative agent of crown gall tumour on wounded plants, it is a vital part of the organism's biology. A chromosomally-determined chemotaxis system causes the bacterium to be attracted in

Gram-negative bacteria are able to respond chemotactically to carbohydrates which are substrates of the bacterial phosphoeno1pyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase system (PTS). The mechanism of signal transduction in PTS-mediated chemotaxis is different from the well-studied mechanism involving methyl-a

## Abstract Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) of innate origin are agents of the most ancient form of defense systems. They can be found in a wide variety of species ranging from bacteria through insects to humans. Through the course of evolution, host organisms developed arsenals of AMPs that protect

A mathematical model was developed to simulate the movement of chemotactic bacteria into and within a capillary tube containing a metabolizable chemoattractant. The model was based on a material balance that accounts for the transport of bacteria and chemoattractant as well as consumption of the sub
