The MarR Family Transcriptional Regulator EmrR Negatively Regulates the Type III Secretion System (T3SS) and Positively Modulates Pathogenicity in Dickeya oryzae

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study revealed that the transcriptional regulator EmrR in Dickeya oryzae modulates virulence by regulating hrpL expression and c‐di‐GMP levels. It affects motility, biofilm formation, cellulase production and pathogenicity. EMSA and footprinting confirmed EmrR binds directly to the promoter of its target operon.

Methionine synthesis in Neurospora. The isolation of cystathionine [PDF]

open access: yes, 1947
Among artificially produced biochemical mutants of Neurospora, those which have lost the ability to synthesize methionine form the largest class. At the present writing 87 occurrences of the methionineless character have been observed in this laboratory ...

Positive Autoregulation of an Acyl-Homoserine Lactone Quorum-Sensing Circuit Synchronizes the Population Response

open access: yesmBio, 2017
Many proteobacteria utilize acyl-homoserine lactone quorum-sensing signals. At low population densities, cells produce a basal level of signal, and when sufficient signal has accumulated in the surrounding environment, it binds to its receptor, and ...

Molecular Mechanisms of Algicidal Bacteria in Controlling Harmful Algal Blooms: Advances in Bacteria‐Algae Interactions [PDF]

open access: yesEnviron Microbiol Rep
This review elucidates the molecular mechanisms of algicidal bacteria, highlighting critical behaviours like chemotaxis, quorum sensing and extracellular vesicle release. It details how these actions disrupt algal cellular integrity, photosynthesis and calcium homeostasis, providing a theoretical foundation for controlling harmful algal blooms ...

[92] Homoserine dehydrogenase (Rhodospirillum rubrum) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1970
Publisher Summary This chapter describes the assay, purification, and properties of homoserine dehydrogenase. Enzyme activity is measured spectrophotometrically by following the absorbance changes at 340 m μ due to the appearance or disappearance of the reduced pyridine nucleotide.

Global and Phylogenetic Distribution of Quorum Sensing Signals, Acyl Homoserine Lactones, in the Family of Vibrionaceae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Bacterial quorum sensing (QS) and the corresponding signals, acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs), were first described for a luminescent Vibrio species. Since then, detailed knowledge has been gained on the functional level of QS; however, the abundance of ...

One can’t stand on its own: Are non-luminescence traits necessary for V. fischeri colonization of E. scolopes? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Vibrio fischeri and Euprymna scolopes squid establish mutualistic symbiosis and select for each other in the natural environment. V. fischeri provides bioluminescent camouflage for E. scolopes while E. scolopes provides nutrients for V. fischeri.

The RhlR quorum-sensing receptor controls Pseudomonas aeruginosa pathogenesis and biofilm development independently of its canonical homoserine lactone autoinducer.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2017
Quorum sensing (QS) is a bacterial cell-to-cell communication process that relies on the production, release, and response to extracellular signaling molecules called autoinducers.

The GCR1 and GPA1 Participate in Promotion of Arabidopsis Primary Root Elongation Induced by N-Acyl-Homoserine Lactones, the Bacterial Quorum-Sensing Signals

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2012
Many gram-negative bacteria use N-acyl-homoserine lactones (AHL) as quorum-sensing signals to coordinate their collective behaviors. Accumulating evidence indicates that plants can respond to AHL. However, little is known about the molecular mechanism of

Changes in the genetic requirements for microbial interactions with increasing community complexity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Microbial community structure and function rely on complex interactions whose underlying molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. To investigate these interactions in a simple microbiome, we introduced E. coli into an experimental community based on a
