The formation of these biofilms requires the orchestration of a highly integrated network of regulatory proteins. In article 2200009, Erhard Bremer and colleagues take a closer look at one such regulator, namely the Bacillus subtilis protein RemA. RemA forms donut-shaped octamers with the potential to assemble into dimeric nucleosome-like structures. The authors not only discuss how RemA affects gene expression in the context of biofilm formation, but also review RemA's additional roles in nitrogen metabolism and osmotic-stress adjustment.
