Evaluation of a new high-throughput method for identifying quorum quenching bacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Quorum sensing (QS) is a population-dependent mechanism for bacteria to synchronize social behaviors such as secretion of virulence factors. The enzymatic interruption of QS, termed quorum quenching (QQ), has been suggested as a promising alternative ...

Implications of Rewiring Bacterial Quorum Sensing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Bacteria employ quorum sensing, a form of cell-cell communication, to sense changes in population density and regulate gene expression accordingly.

Genetic Differences in Barley Govern the Responsiveness to N-Acyl Homoserine Lactone

open access: yesPhytobiomes Journal, 2019
Enhanced resistance in barley (Hordeum vulgare) against pathogens, such as the powdery mildew-causing fungus Blumeria graminis f. sp. hordei, is of high importance.

Identification and functional characterization of a potential l-Homoserine exporter in Corynebacterium glutamicum

open access: yesEngineering Microbiology
Exporter protein systems play a crucial role in the efficient production of valuable chemicals. However, the lack of active exporters significantly limits the application of industrial bio-based production, making the identification and utilization of ...

Effect of Homoserine on Growth of Mycobacterium smegmatis: Inhibition of Glutamate Transport by Homoserine [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology, 1987
Homoserine strongly inhibited growth of Mycobacterium smegmatis in medium containing glutamate as the sole source of nitrogen but was without effect when asparagine, alanine or glutamine was the sole nitrogen source. It was readily taken up by glutamate-grown cells, reaching an intracellular concentration of over 20 mM after 4 h incubation. The primary

Metabolic Engineering of a Homoserine-Derived Non-Natural Pathway for the De Novo Production of 1,3-Propanediol from Glucose.

open access: yesACS Synthetic Biology, 2019
Engineering a homoserine-derived non-natural pathway allows heterologous production of 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PDO) from glucose without adding expensive vitamin B12.

Principles for Rigorous Design and Application of Synthetic Microbial Communities

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
SynComs are artificially designed to enable inter‐species metabolic interactions, metabolic division of labor, and ecological interactions that can elicit phenotypes like colonization stability and environmental adaptation. This systematic review explores the processes used to construct SynComs, the assessment of the mechanisms of metabolic interaction

Quorum Sensing Activity of Mesorhizobium sp. F7 Isolated from Potable Water

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2014
We isolated a bacterial isolate (F7) from potable water. The strain was identified as Mesorhizobium sp. by 16S rDNA gene phylogenetic analysis and screened for N-acyl homoserine lactone (AHL) production by an AHL biosensor. The AHL profile of the isolate
