The Scientific World Journal, 2014 Many Proteobacteria communicate via production followed by response of quorum sensing molecules, namely, N-acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs). These molecules consist of a lactone moiety with N-acyl side chain with various chain lengths and degrees of ...

Marine-Derived Metabolites of S-Adenosylmethionine as Templates for New Anti-Infectives
Marine Drugs, 2009 S-Adenosylmethionine (AdoMet) is a key biochemical co-factor whose proximate metabolites include methylated macromolecules (e.g., nucleic acids, proteins, phospholipids), methylated small molecules (e.g., sterols, biogenic amines), polyamines (e.g ...

A novel metagenomic short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase attenuates Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm formation and virulence on Caenorhabditis elegans. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 In Pseudomonas aeruginosa, the expression of a number of virulence factors, as well as biofilm formation, are controlled by quorum sensing (QS). N-Acylhomoserine lactones (AHLs) are an important class of signaling molecules involved in bacterial QS and ...

Pseudomonas fluorescens MFE01 uses 1-undecene as aerial communication molecule
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 Bacterial communication is a fundamental process used to synchronize gene expression and collective behavior among the bacterial population. The most studied bacterial communication system is quorum sensing, a cell density system, in which the ...

Profiling acylated homoserine lactones in Yersinia ruckeri and influence of exogenous acyl homoserine lactones and known quorum-sensing inhibitors on protease production [PDF]
Journal of Applied Microbiology, 2007 To profile the quorum-sensing (QS) signals in Yersinia ruckeri and to examine the possible regulatory link between QS signals and a typical QS-regulated virulence phenotype, a protease.Liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (HPLC-HRMS) showed that Y.

Quorum Sensing Activity of Enterobacter asburiae Isolated from Lettuce Leaves
Sensors, 2013 Bacterial communication or quorum sensing (QS) is achieved via sensing of QS signaling molecules consisting of oligopeptides in Gram-positive bacteria and N-acyl homoserine lactones (AHL) in most Gram-negative bacteria.

Caffeine as a Potential Quorum Sensing Inhibitor
Sensors, 2013 Quorum sensing enables bacteria to control the gene expression in response to the cell density. It regulates a variety of bacterial physiological functions such as biofilm formation, bioluminescence, virulence factors and swarming which has been shown ...

Regulation of acylated homoserine lactones (AHLs) in beef by spice marination [PDF]
Journal of Food Science and Technology, 2016 Quorum sensing (QS) is a signaling mechanism used by bacteria to communicate each other through the release of auto-inducing signaling molecules. Despite the fact that bacteria regulate its phenotypes by QS mechanism, their potential role in meat spoilage is not yet elucidated.
