Quorum sensing is a cell-to-cell communication process that bacteria use to monitor local population density. Quorum sensing relies on extracellular signal molecules called autoinducers (AIs).

The Role of Quorum Sensing Molecules in Bacterial–Plant Interactions
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

The role of microbial dormancy autoinducers in metabolism blockade [PDF]
Alkyl-substituted hydroxybenzenes (AHBs), which are autoinducers of microbial dormancy (d1 factors), were found to stabilize the structure of protein macromolecules and modify the catalytic activity of enzymes.

Quantitative effects of medium hardness and nutrient availability on the swarming motility of Serratia liquefaciens [PDF]
We report the first controlled measurements of expansion rates for swarming colonies of Serratia liquefaciens under different growth conditions, combined with qualitative observations of the organization of the colony into regions of differentiated cell ...

Core Principles of Bacterial Autoinducer Systems [PDF]
SUMMARY Autoinduction (AI), the response to self-produced chemical signals, is widespread in the bacterial world. This process controls vastly different target functions, such as luminescence, nutrient acquisition, and biofilm formation, in different ways and integrates additional environmental and physiological cues.

N-acylhomoserine lactones (AHLs), bacterial signaling compounds involved in quorum-sensing, are a structurally diverse group of compounds. We describe here the identification, synthesis, occurrence and biological activity of a new AHL, N-((2E,5Z)-2,5 ...

Cannabigerol Prevents Quorum Sensing and Biofilm Formation of Vibrio harveyi
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.

A novel finding of intra-genus inhibition of quorum sensing in Vibrio bacteria
Quorum sensing is the process by which microbial cells sense and respond to the co-presence of others in their surrounding, through the detection of their autoinducers associated with gene expression regulation and thereby controlling many physiological ...

Light emission monitoring during growth of V. harveyi strain BB120 and derivative mutants unable to synthesize the autoinducers CAI-1 or AI-2. [PDF]
Harveyi clade Vibrio strain BB120 (A) and derivative mutants JMH603 (B), KM387 (C) and JAF633 (D) unable to synthesize, respectively, the autoinducers CAI-1, AI-2 and HAI-1 were SMF-exposed (2000 Gauss) or sham-exposed and light emission was monitored ...
