Spatial Heterogeneity of Autoinducer Regulation Systems [PDF]
Sensors, 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 neighbouring organisms.

Environmental microbial communications in gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria [PDF]
Global Journal of Environmental Science and Management, 2023 Microorganisms are present in nature and shape an enormous a half of our micro- and macro-environment. Quorum sensing is the process of intercellular conversation that enables microbes to perceive their surroundings and change their behaviour, allowing ...

Molecular basis of quorum sensing signal-response systems in bacteria
Acta Biologica, 2017 Bacteria use quorum sensing (QS) to conduct gene expression programmes connected with collective behaviors. QS indicates on the capacity of bacteria to monitor their population density and regulate gene expression. QS activates from tens to hundreds of

Partial privatization is ineffective against aG strains. [PDF]
, 2022 Selection favors aG over AG because both strains access the private and public benefits and pay the good’s cost, but only AG pays the autoinducer’s cost. aG can use autoinducers to trigger the production of goods.

Applied Sciences, 2022 Quorum sensing is a density-dependent mechanism using chemical signal molecules termed autoinducers to regulate diverse biological processes in bacteria, including bioluminescence. However, the correlation between growth and light emission of two typical

Chemical signalling within the rumen microbiome [PDF]
Animal BioscienceRuminants possess a specialized four-compartment forestomach, consisting of the reticulum, rumen, omasum, and abomasum. The rumen, the primary fermentative chamber, harbours a dynamic ecosystem comprising bacteria, protozoa, fungi, archaea, and ...

Quorum sensing as a mechanism to harness the wisdom of the crowds
Nature Communications, 2023 Bacteria release and sense small molecules called autoinducers in a process known as quorum sensing. The prevailing interpretation of quorum sensing is that by sensing autoinducer concentrations, bacteria estimate population density to regulate the ...
