Evolution of LuxR solos in bacterial communication: receptors and signals

Biotechnology Letters, 2019
Cell-cell communication in bacteria needs chemical signals and cognate receptors. Many Gram-negative bacteria use acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs) and cognate LuxR-type receptors to regulate their quorum sensing (QS) systems. The signal synthase-receptor (LuxI-LuxR) pairs may have co-evolved together.

LuxR solo regulates recalcitrant aromatic compound biodegradation: Repression and activation of dibenzofuran-catabolic genes expression in a Rhodococcus sp.

Journal of Hazardous Materials
Aromatic compounds contribute to the category of prevalent, toxic, and persistent pollutants in the environment. Microbial degradation of aromatic pollutants is eco-friendly, which depends on efficient manipulation of catabolic enzyme activity.

[Advances in quorum-sensing LuxR solos in bacteria].

Wei sheng wu xue bao = Acta microbiologica Sinica, 2018
Quorum-sensing (QS) involved in the production of N-Acylhomoserine lactones (AHLs) is a universal way of communication of gram-negative bacteria. Complete AHL-QS system includes pairs of AHLs synthase belonging to LuxI family and cognate LuxR-family AHLs sensor-regulator.

Quorum Sensing and LuxR Solos in Photorhabdus

2016
Bacterial communication via small diffusible molecules to mediate group-coordinated behaviour is commonly referred to as 'quorum sensing'. The prototypical quorum sensing system of Gram-negative bacteria consists of a LuxI-type autoinducer synthase that produces acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs) as signals and a LuxR-type receptor that detects the AHLs ...

A novel LuxR‐type solo of Sinorhizobium meliloti, NurR, is regulated by the chromosome replication coordinator, DnaA and activates quorum sensing

Molecular Microbiology, 2019
SummaryThe genome of Sinorhizobium meliloti, a model for studying plant‐bacteria symbiosis, contains eight genes coding for LuxR‐like proteins. Two of these, SinR and ExpR, are essential for quorum sensing (QS). Roles and regulation surrounding the others are mostly unknown.
