Switch between single-cell (planktonic) to biofilm growth is regulated by a variety of environmental and physiological cues, often related to stress responses, thus suggesting direct cross-talk stress responses and biofilm formation. Regulatory mechanisms presiding to this process involve the master stress regulation factor sigmaS and the biosynthesis of the cyclic di-GMP signal molecule by diguanylate cyclase enzymes (DGCs), in a tight and complex interplay.

Abstract
Switch between single-cell (planktonic) to biofilm growth is regulated by a variety of environmental and physiological cues, often related to stress responses, thus suggesting direct cross-talk stress responses and biofilm formation. Regulatory mechanisms presiding to this process involve the master stress regulation factor sigmaS and the biosynthesis of the cyclic di-GMP signal molecule by diguanylate cyclase enzymes (DGCs), in a tight and complex interplay.
