Depending on the environmental conditions, bacteria can either exist as single motile cells, also called planktonic cells, or they adhere to each other and to surfaces with the help of adhesive structures, thus becoming sedentary cells that can also form biofilms. In this work the transition between these two lifestyles was investigated in the model organism and gram-negative bacterium Escherichia coli that, when cultivated in nutrient-rich medium, switches from the planktonic to the adhesive lifestyle upon entry into the stationary phase of growth. The central aim was the identification and detailed characterization of regulatory processes involved in the coordination of the two major features of the planktonic and the adhesive lifestyle i...
