Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014 N-acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs) act as quorum sensing signals that regulate cell-density dependent behaviors in many gram-negative bacteria, in particular those important for plant-microbe interactions.

QSCNAS: A platform for quorum sensing and quenching bacteria analysis in global wastewater treatment plants [PDF]
ImetaThis study identifies the potential quorum sensing (QS) bacteria in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) and constructs a QS communication network through the establishment of a local QS bacterial database with six languages and the analysis of over 1000 activated sludge microbiome samples collected from 269 WWTPs.

DmdA‐independent lag phase shortening in Phaeobacter inhibens bacteria under stress conditions
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.The lag phase is crucial for resuming bacterial growth and can be shortened by fueling the methionine cycle with methyl groups from DMSP or other methylated compounds. While DmdA is the primary DMSP demethylase in Phaeobacter inhibens, stress activates additional enzymes like Bmt. This enzymatic flexibility allows bacteria to exit the lag phase rapidly,

Sensors, 2014 Quorum sensing (QS) is a bacterial cell-to-cell communication system controlling QS-mediated genes which is synchronized with the population density. The regulation of specific gene activity is dependent on the signaling molecules produced, namely N-acyl

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT γ‐Aminobutyric acid (GABA) plays an important role in plant growth, development, and stress resistance. Exogenous GABA works by increasing the content of endogenous GABA; therefore, GABA transport from the apoplast to the cytosol is critical. In this study, two GABA transporter genes, SlGAT1 and SlGAT2 were identified in tomato.

Understanding the development of bacterial colony: Physiology, new technology, and modeling
Quantitative Biology, Volume 13, Issue 4, December 2025.Abstract Bacterial colonies, as dynamic ecosystems, display intricate behaviors and organizational structures that profoundly influence their survival and functionality. These communities engage in physiological and social interactions, resulting in remarkable spatial heterogeneity.

Marine Drugs, 2018 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 ...

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, Volume 48, Issue 10, Page 10550-10570, 15 July 2025.ABSTRACT Bacteriophages, or phages (viruses of bacteria), play significant roles in shaping the diversity of bacterial communities within the human gut. A phage‐infected bacterial cell can either immediately undergo lysis (virulent/lytic infection) or enter a stable state within the host as a prophage (lysogeny) until a trigger event, called prophage ...
