Kin discrimination and outer membrane exchange in Myxococcus xanthus: Experimental analysis of a natural population

In some species of myxobacteria, adjacent cells sufficiently similar at the adhesin protein TraA can exchange components of their outer membranes. The primary benefits of such outer membrane exchange (OME) in natural populations are unclear, but in some OME interactions, transferred OM content can i...
