Biofilms in the marine environment: role of c-di-GMP

Acronym :

BEEMROC

Funding:

CD-TPM, APRI

Short Overview:

The objective was to characterize the c-di-GMP signaling pathway in Shewanella oneidensis. This pathway controls the planktonic to biofilm transition. The long term goal is to find molecules interfering with this pathway to prevent biofilm formation.
