Characterization of N-Acylhomoserine Lactones Produced by Bacteria Isolated from Industrial Cooling Water Systems

Sensors, 2015
The cooling water systems are used to remove heat generated in the various industries. Biofouling of the cooling water systems causes blocking of condenser pipes and the heat exchanger tubes. In many Gram-negative bacteria, N-acylhomoserine lactone (AHL)

The predatory soil bacterium Lysobacter reprograms quorum sensing system to regulate antifungal antibiotic production in a cyclic-di-GMP-independent manner

Communications Biology, 2021
Li et al shows that the quorum sensing system component protein RpfG from Lysobacter, in addition to being a cyclic dimeric GMP (c-di-GMP) phosphodiesterase, also regulates the biosynthesis of an antifungal factor.

Lysobacter capsici sp. nov., with antimicrobial activity, isolated from the rhizosphere of pepper, and emended description of the genus Lysobacter [PDF]

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SYSTEMATIC AND EVOLUTIONARY MICROBIOLOGY, 2008
The taxonomic position of a novel bacterial strain, YC5194(T), with antimicrobial activity, isolated from the rhizosphere of pepper in Jinju, South Korea, was studied using a polyphasic approach. Cells of the strain were Gram-negative, rod-shaped, facultative anaerobes. It grew at a temperature of 15-37 degrees C (optimum 28 degrees C).

Loss of Flagella-Related Genes Enables a Nonflagellated, Fungal-Predating Bacterium To Strengthen the Synthesis of an Antifungal Weapon

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
Loss of flagellar genes causes a nonmotile phenotype. The genus Lysobacter consists of numerous environmentally ubiquitous, nonflagellated bacteria, including Lysobacter enzymogenes, an antifungal bacterium that is beneficial to plants. L.

LbDSF, the Lysobacter brunescens Quorum-Sensing System Diffusible Signaling Factor, Regulates Anti- Xanthomonas XSAC Biosynthesis, Colony Morphology, and Surface Motility

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Lysobacter species are emerging as novel sources of antibiotics, but the regulation of these antibiotics has not been thoroughly elucidated to date. In this work, we identified a small diffusible signaling factor (DSF) molecule (LbDSF) that regulates the

Vesicular delivery of the antifungal antibiotics of Lysobacter enzymogenes C3 [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2018
Abstract Lysobacter enzymogenes C3 is a predatory strain of gram-negative gliding bacteria that produces antifungal antibiotics by the polyketide synthetic pathway. Outer membrane vesicles (OMV) are formed as a stress response and can deliver virulence factors to host cells.

A Newly Isolated Strain Lysobacter brunescens YQ20 and Its Performance on Wool Waste Biodegradation

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Wool keratin is difficult to degrade as comparing to feathers because of its tough secondary structure. In order to develop an approach for high-value utilization of wool fiber waste by keratinolytic microorganisms, which is produced from shearing ...
