LuxR Solos From Environmental Fluorescent Pseudomonads. [PDF]
LuxR solos are related to quorum sensing (QS) LuxR family regulators; however, they lack a cognate LuxI family protein. LuxR solos are widespread and almost exclusively found in proteobacteria.

LuxR Solos in Photorhabdus Species [PDF]
Bacteria communicate via small diffusible molecules to mediate group-coordinated behavior, a process designated as quorum sensing. The basic molecular quorum sensing system of Gram-negative bacteria consists of a LuxI-type autoinducer synthase producing ...

Cell-Cell Signaling Proteobacterial LuxR Solos: A Treasure Trove of Subgroups Having Different Origins, Ligands, and Ecological Roles. [PDF]
Many proteobacteria possess LuxR solos which are quorum sensing LuxR-type regulators that are not paired with a cognate LuxI-type synthase. LuxR solos have been implicated in intraspecies, interspecies, and interkingdom communication by sensing ...

Computational Exploration of Putative LuxR Solos in Archaea and Their Functional Implications in Quorum Sensing [PDF]
LuxR solos are unexplored in Archaea, despite their vital role in the bacterial regulatory network. They assist bacteria in perceiving acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs) and/or non-AHLs signaling molecules for establishing intraspecies, interspecies, and ...

Bacterial LuxR Solos Have Evolved to Respond to Different Molecules Including Signals From Plants [PDF]
A future challenge will be understanding the extensive communication that most likely takes place in bacterial interspecies and interkingdom signaling between plants and bacteria.

In Silico Analysis Reveals Distribution of Quorum Sensing Genes and Consistent Presence of LuxR Solos in the Pandoraea Species [PDF]
The most common quorum sensing (QS) system in Gram-negative bacteria consists of signaling molecules called N-acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs), which are synthesized by an enzyme AHL synthase (LuxI) and detected by a transcriptional regulator (LuxR) that ...

Census of Solo LuxR Genes in Prokaryotic Genomes [PDF]
luxR genes encode transcriptional regulators that control acyl homoserine lactone-based quorum sensing (AHL QS) in Gram negative bacteria. On the bacterial chromosome, luxR genes are usually found next or near to a luxI gene encoding the AHL signal ...

A Bioinformatic Survey of Distribution, Conservation, and Probable Functions of LuxR Solo Regulators in Bacteria [PDF]
LuxR solo transcriptional regulators contain both an autoinducer binding domain (ABD; N-terminal) and a DNA binding Helix-Turn-Helix domain (HTH; C-terminal), but are not associated with a cognate N-acyl homoserine lactone (AHL) synthase coding gene in ...

Stenotrophomonas maltophilia Responds to Exogenous AHL Signals Through the LuxR Solo SmoR (Smlt1839) [PDF]
Quorum Sensing (QS) mediated by Acyl Homoserine Lactone (AHL) molecules are probably the most widespread and studied among Gram-negative bacteria. Canonical AHL systems are composed by a synthase (LuxI family) and a regulator element (LuxR family), whose

PcsR2 Is a LuxR-Type Regulator That Is Upregulated on Wheat Roots and Is Unique to Pseudomonas chlororaphis [PDF]
LuxR solos are common in plant-associated bacteria and increasingly recognized for playing important roles in plant-microbe interkingdom signaling. Unlike the LuxR-type transcriptional regulators of prototype LuxR/LuxI quorum sensing systems, luxR solos ...
