Structural Insights Into Taxifolin's Potential Inhibition of AHL Synthase via Molecular Docking and Dynamics Simulations

open access: yesAfghanistan Journal of Basic Medical Science
Background: The extensive application of antibiotics for bacterial disease treatment has resulted in the emergence of antibiotic resistance and biofilm formation, a significant issue that contributes to increased illness and death rates. Quorum sensing (QS) is cell-cell communication in bacteria involved in the formation of biofilm in which this ...

Crystallization ofPseudomonas aeruginosaAHL synthase LasI using β-turn crystal engineering

Acta Crystallographica Section D Biological Crystallography, 2004
In Gram-negative bacteria, intercellular communication and virulence regulation is mediated by the diffusible chemical signal acyl-homoserine-L-lactone (AHL). The AHL synthase enzymes produce a variety of AHLs from the substrates S-adenosyl-L-methionine and acyl-acyl carrier protein.

Identification of quorum sensing signal AHLs synthases in Candidatus Jettenia caeni and their roles in anammox activity

Chemosphere, 2019
Acyl-homoserine lactone (AHL)-based quorum sensing (QS) in the anaerobic ammonium oxidizing (anammox) consortia has attracted increasing attention. However, AHL synthase in anammox bacteria and the relationship between AHL synthetic genes and anammox activity are still not clear because anammox bacteria have not been isolated from the consortia.

Mechanistic Insights From Docking and Dynamics: Soy Isoflavonoids Disrupt P. Aeruginosa Quorum Sensing by Targeting AHL Synthase LasI

open access: yesAfghanistan Journal of Basic Medical Science
Abstract Multidrug-resistant specially in Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an emerging global health threat; thus, there is an increasing demand for anti-virulence strategies targeting bacterial communication rather than their growth. As a central enzyme in the quorum-sensing network, the LasI AHL synthase is a promising anti-virulence target.

Functional analysis of three AHL autoinducer synthase genes in Mesorhizobium loti reveals the important role of quorum sensing in symbiotic nodulation

Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 2009
One of the most important signal transduction pathways in bacteria, quorum sensing, is involved in many regulatory circuits in rhizobia, especially in the control of communication between rhizobia and their plant hosts. In this study, we identified 3 autoinducer synthase genes — mrlI1, mrlI2, and mrlI3 — in Mesorhizobium loti NZP 2213.

Integrating molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation studies of afzelechin as a potential inhibitor of acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs) synthase

Afghanistan Journal of Basic Medical Science
Introduction: Misuse of antimicrobial agents and inadequate treatment methods lead to recurrent infections due to microorganism resistance, multi-drug resistance, and biofilm formation. Acyl-homoserine lactones propagate resistance and establish a stable microbial population.

Computational identification of marine-derived therapeutic leads targeting the acyl-homoserine-lactone synthase (AHL) in drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (Strain AYE)

Molecular Diversity
Antimicrobial resistance is posing a major threat to public health, thus contributing to a surge in treatment failure, prolonged infections, and rising mortality. In the present study, a multi-tier virtual screening approach was employed to identify marine-derived leads targeting the acyl-homoserine-lactone synthase (AHL), a promising drug target in ...
