Untethering and Degradation of the Polysaccharide Matrix Are Essential Steps in the Dispersion Response of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilms

Biofilms are multicellular aggregates of bacteria that are encased in an extracellular matrix. The biofilm matrix of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 is composed of eDNA, proteins, and the polysaccharides Pel and Psl. This matrix is thought to be degraded during dispersion to liberate cells from the biof...
