Spatial Heterogeneity of Autoinducer Regulation Systems [PDF]

open access: yesSensors, 2012
Autoinducer signals enable coordinated behaviour of bacterial populations, a phenomenon originally described as quorum sensing. Autoinducer systems are often controlled by environmental substances as nutrients or secondary metabolites (signals) from ...

Quorum sensing in Porphyromonas gingivalis and oral microbial interactions: a scoping review [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Oral Health
ObjectivePorphyromonas gingivalis, a major periodontal pathogen, interacts with other oral microbes through quorum sensing, enhancing its growth and virulence, which contributes to periodontitis.

Effect of autoinducer-2 on biofilm formation of mixed strains derived from kefir [PDF]

open access: yesFood Chemistry: X
The mechanisms underlying kefir grain formation remain to be elucidated. Quorum sensing is a new direction for investigating this process. To explore the formation mechanism of kefir grain through quorum sensing, it is first necessary to establish its ...

Influence of the luxR Regulatory Gene Dosage and Expression Level on the Sensitivity of the Whole-Cell Biosensor to Acyl-Homoserine Lactone

open access: yesBiosensors, 2021
Aliivibrio fischeri LuxR and Aliivibrio logei LuxR1 and LuxR2 regulatory proteins are quorum sensing transcriptional (QS) activators, inducing promoters of luxICDABEG genes in the presence of an autoinducer (3-oxo-hexanoyl-l-homoserine lactone).

Indole intercepts the communication between enteropathogenic E. coli and Vibrio cholerae

open access: yesGut Microbes, 2022
Reported numbers of diarrheal samples exhibiting co-infections or multiple infections, with two or more infectious agents, are rising, likely due to advances in bacterial diagnostic techniques.

Bacterial Lighthouses—Real-Time Detection of Yersinia enterocolitica by Quorum Sensing

open access: yesBiosensors, 2021
Foodborne zoonotic pathogens have a severe impact on food safety. The demand for animal-based food products (meat, milk, and eggs) is increasing, and therefore faster methods are necessary to detect infected animals or contaminated food before products ...

Dynamics analysis of coupled synthetic genetic repressilators [PDF]

open access: yesКомпьютерные исследования и моделирование, 2010
We have investigated dynamics of synthetic genetic oscillators - repressilators - coupled through autoinducer diffusion. The model of the system with phase-repulsive coupling structure is under consideration.

Anti-Quorum-Sensing Potential of Ethanolic Extracts of Aromatic Plants from the Flora of Cyprus

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Quorum sensing (QS) is a form of intra- and inter-species communication system employed by bacteria to regulate their collective behavior in a cell population-dependent manner. QS has been implicated in the virulence of several pathogenic bacteria.

Protein Model and Function Analysis in Quorum-Sensing Pathway of Vibrio qinghaiensis sp.-Q67

open access: yesBiology, 2021
Bioluminescent bacteria are mainly found in marine habitats. Vibrio qinghaiensis sp.-Q67 (Q67), a nonpathogenic freshwater bacterium, has been a focus due to its wide use in the monitoring of environmental pollution and the assessment of toxicity ...

Salmonella enterica Optimizes Metabolism After Addition of Acyl-Homoserine Lactone Under Anaerobic Conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs) are quorum sensing (QS) signaling molecules that mediate cell-to-cell communication in Gram-negative bacteria. Salmonella does not produce AHL, however, it can recognize AHLs produced by other species through SdiA protein ...
