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 ...

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 ...

The kiwifruit emerging pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae does not produce AHLs but possesses three luxR solos. [PDF]
Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa) is an emerging phytopathogen causing bacterial canker disease in kiwifruit plants worldwide. Quorum sensing (QS) gene regulation plays important roles in many different bacterial plant pathogens. In this study we

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 ...

Identification and characterization of LuxR solo homolog PplR in pathogenic Pseudomonas plecoglossicida NB2011 [PDF]
Pseudomonas plecoglossicida is a causative agent of visceral granulomas in large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea). Quorum sensing (QS) is widely involved in imparting virulence to pathogenic bacteria; however, it has not been studied in P ...

LuxR Solos in the Plant Endophyte Kosakonia sp. Strain KO348 [PDF]
Cell-cell signaling in bacteria allows a synchronized and coordinated behavior of a microbial community. LuxR solos represent a subfamily of proteins in proteobacteria which most commonly detect and respond to signals produced exogenously by other microbes or eukaryotic hosts.

Comparative genomic and functional analysis of Arthrobacter sp. UMCV2 reveals the presence of luxR-related genes inducible by the biocompound N, N-dimethylhexadecilamine [PDF]
Quorum sensing (QS) is a bacterial cell-cell communication system with genetically regulated mechanisms dependent on cell density. Canonical QS systems in gram-negative bacteria possess an autoinducer synthase (LuxI family) and a transcriptional ...

Role of the LuxR solo, SdiA, in eavesdropping on foreign bacteria [PDF]
Abstract Bacteria can cooperate by coordinating their gene expression through the production, release, and detection of small molecules, a phenomenon known as quorum sensing (QS). One type of QS commonly found in Gram-negative bacteria utilizes a LuxI-type enzyme to produce a signaling molecule of the N-acyl-homoserine lactone (AHL ...
