ComFB, found in bacilli, clostridia, cyanobacteria, spirochetes, beta-, gamma-, and the former deltaproteobacteria, is a widespread c-di-GMP (and also c-di-AMP) receptor protein.

It's Friday, and a new episode of #MattersMicrobial from #MicrobeTV. This time, I chat with @DrJenBiddle about microbes in the deep sediment..."Deep Microbial Thoughts." Please spread the word; it was fun. She has been on the submersible Alvin twice!
