Integration of AI-2 Based Cell-Cell Signaling with Metabolic Cues in Escherichia coli. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 The quorum sensing molecule Autoinducer-2 (AI-2) is generated as a byproduct of activated methyl cycle by the action of LuxS in Escherichia coli. AI-2 is synthesized, released and later internalized in a cell-density dependent manner. Here, by mutational

Characterization of AI-2/LuxS quorum sensing system in antibiotic resistance, pathogenicity of non carbapenemase-producing carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli [PDF]
BMC MicrobiologyBackground As a quorum sensing system, LuxS/AI-2 is closely associated with bacterial growth, biofilm formation, and virulence. As yet, it is not known how the luxS is associated with a diverse array of physiological activities in non- carbapenemase ...

Quorum Sensing via Autoinducer‐2 Promotes Colonisation and Host Adaptation in B. bifidum PRL2010 [PDF]
Microbial BiotechnologyAutoinducer‐2 (AI‐2) is a key signalling molecule that in many bacteria facilitates interspecies communication by regulating gene expression in response to population density through a process known as quorum sensing.

Helicobacter pylori luxS mutants cause hyperinflammatory responses during chronic infection [PDF]
Microbiology SpectrumHelicobacter pylori infects roughly half the world’s population, causing gastritis, peptic ulcers, and gastric cancer in a subset. These pathologies occur in response to a chronic inflammatory state, but it is not fully understood how H.
