Analysis of ARQ protocols for bacterial quorum communications [PDF]
, 2016 Quorum sensing (QS) is used to describe the communication between bacterial cells, whereby a coordinated population response is controlled through the synthesis, accumulation and subsequent sensing of specific diffusible chemical signals called ...

The Role of Quorum Sensing Molecules in Bacterial–Plant Interactions
Metabolites, 2023 Quorum sensing (QS) is a system of communication of bacterial cells by means of chemical signals called autoinducers, which modulate the behavior of entire populations of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. Three classes of signaling molecules have

Maintenance of Microbial Cooperation Mediated by Public Goods in Single- and Multiple-Trait Scenarios [PDF]
, 2017 Microbes often form densely populated communities, which favor competitive and cooperative interactions. Cooperation among bacteria often occurs through the production of metabolically costly molecules produced by certain individuals that become ...

Methods for eradication of the biofilms formed by opportunistic pathogens using novel techniques – A review [PDF]
, 2016 The inconvenient environmental conditions force microorganisms to colonize either abiotic surfaces or animal and plant tissues and, therefore, form more resistant structures – biofilms.

Identification of Functional LsrB-Like Autoinducer-2 Receptors [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 2009 ABSTRACTAlthough a variety of bacterial species have been reported to use the interspecies communication signal autoinducer-2 (AI-2) to regulate multiple behaviors, the molecular mechanisms of AI-2 recognition and signal transduction remain poorly understood.

Evidence of autoinducer activity in naturally occurring biofilms [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2006 N-Acyl homoserine lactone (AHL) molecules have been shown to act as mediators of population density-dependent (quorum-sensing) gene expression in numerous Gram-negative bacteria. Functions associated with AHL include light production in Vibrio fischeri, expression of virulence factors in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and conjugation in Agrobacterium ...

Cannabigerol Prevents Quorum Sensing and Biofilm Formation of Vibrio harveyi
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Cannabigerol (CBG) is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid naturally present in trace amounts in the Cannabis plant. So far, CBG has been shown to exert diverse activities in eukaryotes. However, much less is known about its effects on prokaryotes.
