黄色粘球菌是一种常见的土壤细菌，具有复杂的多细胞生活方式，继续挑战我们对原核生物能力的概念。黄曲霉是粘细菌的首选实验室代表，粘细菌是一类生物，其特点是能够形成高度结构化的生物膜，包括触角状的表面滑动细胞群，同步波动的细胞波纹，以及从底物中伸出形成子实体的大量充满孢子的聚集体。但大多数粘性细菌也是捕食者，依靠其他微生物细胞裂解释放的大分子降解而茁壮成长。本综述的目的是考察我们对黄花夜蛾捕食性生活史的理解。我们将研究与猎物接触时形成的多细胞结构，以及黄色分枝杆菌用来检测和摧毁猎物细胞的分子机制。我们还将研究我们对微生物捕食者-猎物关系的理解，以及如何利用细菌捕食机制来产生新的抗微生物技术的前景。
Myxococcus xanthus is a common soil bacterium with an intricate multicellular lifestyle that continues to challenge the way in which we conceptualize the capabilities of prokaryotic organisms. M. xanthus is the preferred laboratory representative from the Myxobacteria, a family of organisms distinguished by their ability to form highly structured biofilms that include tentacle-like packs of surface-gliding cell groups, synchronized rippling waves of oscillating cells and massive spore-filled aggregates that protrude up from the substratum to form fruiting bodies. But most of the Myxobacteria are also predators that thrive on the degradation of macromolecules released through the lysis of other microbial cells. The aim of this review is to examine our understanding of the predatory life cycle of M. xanthus. We will examine the multicellular structures formed during contact with prey, and the molecular mechanisms utilized by M. xanthus to detect and destroy prey cells. We will also examine our understanding of microbial predator-prey relationships and the prospects for how bacterial predation mechanisms can be exploited to generate new anti-microbial technologies.
