Identification of sdiA-regulated genes in a mouse commensal strain of Enterobacter cloacae
Many bacteria determine their population density using quorum sensing. The most intensively studied mechanism of quorum sensing utilizes proteins of the LuxI family to synthesize a signaling molecule of the acylhomoserine lactone (AHL) type, and a ...

Regulation of AHL Production and Its Contribution to Epiphytic Fitness in Pseudomonas syringae
Pseudomonas syringae forms large cell aggregates that are more stress tolerant than solitary cells during epiphytic growth on plants. The differential survival of aggregates on leaves suggests that epiphytic fitness traits may be controlled in a density ...

The Role of SprIR Quorum Sensing System in the Regulation of Serratia proteamaculans 94 Invasion
The bacteria Serratia proteamaculans 94 have a LuxI/LuxR type QS system consisting of AHL synthase SprI and the regulatory receptor SprR. We have previously shown that inactivation of the AHL synthase sprI gene resulted in an increase in the invasive ...

Genome sequencing-assisted identification and the first functional validation of N-acyl-homoserine-lactone synthases from the Sphingomonadaceae family [PDF]
Background Members of the genus Novosphingobium have been isolated from a variety of environmental niches. Although genomics analyses have suggested the presence of genes associated with quorum sensing signal production e.g., the N-acyl-homoserine ...

Membrane composition and thermodynamic identity as boundaries of life for synthetic cell research
What makes a cell a cell? The boundary of a living cell is not just a wall. Read as a Markov blanket, the membrane separates internal from external states, generating identity and non‐equilibrium order. Can this identity be rebuilt from scratch in a synthetic cell?
