Programming Next‐Generation Synthetic Biosensors by Genetic Circuit Design
Synthetic biology enables genetic circuit‐based biosensing to detect diverse targets, process signals, and transduce them into readable outputs or intracellular regulatory activities. However, field deployment and real‐world application of such synthetic biosensors face considerable challenges in sensitivity, specificity, speed, stability, and ...

ABSTRACT Essential oils (EOs) exhibit antimicrobial activity against foodborne pathogens due to their chemical composition. This review investigates the mechanisms of action of EOs at subinhibitory concentrations against Salmonella strains. Even at subinhibitory concentrations, EOs induce cellular stress and modulate bacterial metabolism. EOs interfere

Autoinducer 2 in Campylobacter jejuni
Campylobacter (C.) jejuni ist der häufigste, durch Lebensmittel übertragene, bakterieller Auslöser einer Enteritis. Seine Fähigkeit das Quorum Sensing (QS) Molekül Autoinducer-2 (AI-2) herzustellen, eröffnet neue Ansätze für die Forschung von Anpassungsmechanismen bei C. jejuni.

Spatial quorum sensing modelling using coloured hybrid Petri nets and simulative model checking
Background Quorum sensing drives biofilm formation in bacteria in order to ensure that biofilm formation only occurs when colonies are of a sufficient size and density.

Quorum-sensing systems as targets for antivirulence therapy [PDF]
The development of novel therapies to control diseases caused by antibiotic-resistant pathogens is one of the major challenges we are currently facing. Many important plant, animal, and human pathogens regulate virulence by quorum sensing, bacterial cell-

Autoinducer-2-Based Chemical Communication in Bacteria: Complexities of Interspecies Signaling [PDF]
Cell-cell communication in bacteria, called quorum sensing, relies on production, release, and detection of signaling molecules, termed autoinducers. Communication enables populations of cells to synchronize gene expression and therefore behave as a group in a manner akin to cells in multicellular organisms.

Where antibiotic resistance mutations meet quorum-sensing
We do not need to rehearse the grim story of the global rise of antibiotic resistant microbes. But what if it were possible to control the rate with which antibiotic resistance evolves by de novo mutation?

Quorum-sensing regulates biofilm formation in Vibrio scophthalmi [PDF]
Background: In a previous study, we demonstrated that Vibrio scophthalmi, the most abundant Vibrio species among the marine aerobic or facultatively anaerobic bacteria inhabiting the intestinal tract of healthy cultured turbot (Scophthalmus maximus ...
