Detection of quorum-sensing-related molecules in [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background Cell-to-cell communication (also referred to as quorum sensing) based on N-acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs) is a widespread response to environmental change in Gram-negative bacteria.

Characterization of a Novel N-Acylhomoserine Lactonase RmmL from Ruegeria mobilis YJ3

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2018
Gram-negative bacteria utilize N-acylhomoserine lactones (AHLs) as quorum sensing (QS) signaling molecules for intercellular communication. Cell-to-cell communication depends on cell population density, and AHL-dependent QS is related to the production ...

Structural and biochemical characterisation of Archaeoglobus fulgidus esterase reveals a bound CoA molecule in the vicinity of the active site [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A new carboxyl esterase, AF-Est2, from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Archaeoglobus fulgidus has been cloned, over-expressed in Escherichia coli and biochemically and structurally characterized. The enzyme has high activity towards short- to medium-chain

Determinants of HDL Cholesterol Efflux Capacity after Virgin Olive Oil Ingestion: Interrelationships with Fluidity of HDL Monolayer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Scope: Cholesterol efflux capacity of HDL (CEC) is inversely associated with cardiovascular risk. HDL composition, fluidity, oxidation, and size are related with CEC.

Unraveling the role of UilS, a urea-induced acyl-homoserine lactonase that enhances Serratia marcescens fitness, interbacterial competition, and urinary tract infection

open access: yesmBio
Serratia marcescens, a member of the Enterobacteriaceae family, is an opportunistic human pathogen and a frequent cause of urinary tract infections. Clinical isolates often exhibit resistance to multiple antibiotics, posing challenges for successful ...

MzmL, a novel marine derived N-acyl homoserine lactonase from Mesoflavibacter zeaxanthinifaciens that attenuates Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp. carotovorum virulence

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Quorum sensing (QS) is a conserved cell–cell communication mechanism widely distributed in bacteria, and is oftentimes tightly correlated with pathogen virulence.

Characterization of AiiK, an AHL lactonase, from Kurthia huakui LAM0618T and its application in quorum quenching on Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
N-Acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs) act as the key quorum sensing (QS) signal molecules in gram-negative bacteria, which coordinates gene expression and then activates various processes, including biofilm formation and production of virulence factors in ...
