Editor’s summary
Escherichia coli cells lacking the RNA processing enzyme, polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPase), display increased biofilm formation indicating that PNPase is necessary to maintain bacterial cells in the planktonic state through negative regulation of the poly-N-acetylglucosamine biosynthetic operon.
