Bacterial biofilms consist of structured groups of microorganisms that are surrounded within a self-produced extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) matrix, adhering to both living and non-living surfaces. Biofilms represent a fundamental mode of bacterial life across natural, industrial, and clinical settings. The formation of biofilms enhances the survival of bacteria by providing a shield against environmental challenges, antimicrobial agents, and the immune responses of the host. Understanding the molecular mechanisms that govern biofilm formation, maintenance, and dispersal is essential for developing effective strategies to control harmful biofilms and harness beneficial ones. Biofilm formation involves the production of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), which play a crucial role in the structural integrity and functionality of the biofilm matrix. Additionally, chaperones are essential for protein folding and stability within these complex microbial communities.
