Bacillus subtilis regulatory protein GerE [PDF]
, 1998 GerE is the latest-acting of a series of factors which regulate gene expression in the mother cell during sporulation in Bacillus. The gene encoding GerE has been cloned from B. subtilis and overexpressed in Escherichia coli.

Molecular docking analysis of LuxR with Octylbenzene
Abstract LuxR-type transcriptional regulators mediate quorum sensing (QS) in Gram-negative bacteria by binding acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs). Therefore, it is of interest to describe the molecular docking analysis of LuxR with octylbenzene (CID:16607), a non-natural hydrophobic ligand.AutoDock Vina predicted a stable pose (–3.0 kcal ...

PpoR is a conserved unpaired LuxR solo of
BMC Microbiology, 2009 Background Only a small number of Pseudomonas putida strains possess the typical N-acyl homoserine lactone quorum sensing system (AHL QS) that consists of a modular LuxR family protein and its cognate LuxI homolog that produces the AHL signal.

Expression of virulence genes in luminescent and nonluminescent isogenic vibrios and virulence towards gnotobiotic brine shrimp (Artemia franciscana) [PDF]
, 2011 Aims: This study aimed to evaluate the expression levels of virulence gene regulators (luxR and toxR) and virulence factors (serine protease, metalloprotease and haemolysin) in luminescent and nonluminescent isogenic Vibrio harveyi and Vibrio campbellii ...

XocR, a LuxR solo required for virulence in Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2015 Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola (Xoc) causes bacterial leaf streak (BLS) in rice, a serious bacterial disease of rice in Asia and parts of Africa. The virulence mechanisms of Xoc are not entirely clear and control measures for BLS are poorly developed ...

Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2018 Quorum sensing (QS) allows many common bacterial pathogens to coordinate group behaviors such as virulence factor production, host colonization, and biofilm formation at high population densities. This cell–cell signaling process is regulated by N-acyl L-
