Blue Light Is a Universal Signal for Escherichia coli Chemoreceptors

Blue light has been shown to elicit a tumbling response in Escherichia coli, a nonphototrophic bacterium. The exact mechanism of this phototactic response is still unknown. Here, we quantify phototaxis in E. coli by analyzing single-cell trajectories in populations of free-swimming bacteria before a...
