In the present investigation, we have evaluated the antibiofilm potential of Bacillus licheniformis SV1 derived glycolipid against C. glabrata biofilm. Impact of isolated glycolipid on the viability of C. glabrata and on inhibiting as well as eradicating ability of its biofilm were studied. Further, morphological alterations, reactive oxygen species generation (ROS) production and transcriptional expression of selected genes (RT-PCR) of C. glabrata in response with isolated glycolipid were studied. The isolated glycolipid (1.0 mg ml⁻¹) inhibited and eradicated C. glabrata biofilm approximately 80% and 60%, respectively. FE-SEM images revealed glycolipid exposure results in architectural alteration and eradication of C. glabrata biofilm and ROS generation. Transcriptional studies of selected genes showed that the expression of AUS1, FKS1 and KRE1 were down-regulated, while that of ergosterol biosynthesis pathway and multidrug transporter increased, in the presence of glycolipid.
