The Mechanistic Basis of Myxococcus xanthus Rippling Behavior and Its Physiological Role during Predation

Myxococcus xanthus cells self-organize into periodic bands of traveling waves, termed ripples, during multicellular fruiting body development and predation on other bacteria. To investigate the mechanistic basis of rippling behavior and its physiological role during predation by this Gram-negative s...
