Spatial specialization of antioxidant defenses dictates predation success in Myxococcus xanthus

Redox-based chemical warfare is a primary driver of microbial community assembly. Here, we show that the predatory bacterium Myxococcus xanthus employs a spatial division of labor between two inducible monofunctional catalases, mxKatB and mxKatE, to overcome prey-derived hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂). Quantitative transcrip...

Divergent contributions of multiple PPIases to cell survival, sociality, and stress tolerance in Myxococcus xanthus DK1622

ABSTRACT Peptidylprolyl isomerase (PPIase) catalyzes the rate-limiting step of proline cis-trans isomerization during protein folding. In bacteria, multiple PPIases are commonly present and participate in diverse physiological processes. Myxococcus xanthus DK1622 possesses as many as 17 PPIase genes. We previously repo...
