The pathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa is notorious for causing acute and chronic infections in humans. The ability to infect host by P. aeruginosa is dependent on a complex cellular signaling network, which includes a large number of chemosensory signaling pathways that rely on the methyl-...
