The Janthinobacterium sp. HH01 genome encodes a homologue of the V. cholerae CqsA and L. pneumophila LqsA autoinducer synthases. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Janthinobacteria commonly form biofilms on eukaryotic hosts and are known to synthesize antibacterial and antifungal compounds. Janthinobacterium sp. HH01 was recently isolated from an aquatic environment and its genome sequence was established.

498 Structural Determination of the CqsR CACHE Domain and its Autoinducer

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Translational Science, 2023
OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Our goal is to determine the structure of the CACHE domain of the Vibrio cholerae quorum sensing receptor CqsR as well as its autoinducer (AI).

Phage-Encoded LuxR-Type Receptors Responsive to Host-Produced Bacterial Quorum-Sensing Autoinducers

open access: yesmBio, 2019
Quorum sensing (QS) is a process of cell-to-cell communication that bacteria use to orchestrate collective behaviors. QS relies on the cell-density-dependent production, accumulation, and receptor-mediated detection of extracellular signaling molecules ...

Transgenic Plants Producing the Bacterial Pheromone N-Acyl-Homoserine Lactone Exhibit Enhanced Resistance to the Bacterial Phytopathogen Erwinia carotovora

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2001
Bacterial pheromones, mainly different homoserine lactones, are central to a number of bacterial signaling processes, including those involved in plant pathogenicity.

N-acyl Homoserine Lactone-Producing Pseudomonas putida Strain T2-2 from Human Tongue Surface

open access: yesSensors, 2013
Bacterial cell-to-cell communication (quorum sensing) refers to the regulation of bacterial gene expression in response to changes in microbial population density.

The lux autoinducer-receptor interaction in Vibrio harveyi: binding parameters and structural requirements for the autoinducer [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1995
To assess the binding parameters and the structure-function relationship of the Vibrio harveyi lux autoinducer, N-(D-3-hydroxybutanoyl)homoserine lactone (D-HBHL), to light emission, a series of acylhomoserine lactone analogues were synthesized and their effects on the stimulation of luminescence of an autoinducer-deficient mutant of V.

Ecological feedback in quorum-sensing microbial populations can induce heterogeneous production of autoinducers

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Autoinducers are small signaling molecules that mediate intercellular communication in microbial populations and trigger coordinated gene expression via ‘quorum sensing’.

AinS and a new family of autoinducer synthesis proteins [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1995
In Vibrio fischeri, the autoinducer N-3-oxohexanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (AI-1) governs the cell density-dependent induction of the luminescence operon via the LuxR transcriptional activator. The synthesis of AI-1 from bacterial metabolic intermediates is dependent on luxI. Recently, we found a second V.

Caenorhabditis elegans Senses Bacterial Autoinducers [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2006
ABSTRACT Pseudomonas aeruginosa uses virulence factors controlled by quorum sensing (QS) to kill Caenorhabditis elegans . Here we show that C.
