Use of acyl-homoserine lactone derivatives as anti-thrombotic agents

, 2018
Uses of acyl-homoserine lactone compounds are described. In particular, uses of acyl-homoserine lactone compounds as anti-thrombotic agents, to inhibit platelets from becoming hypersensitive, and/or to prevent thrombosis, are ...

Quorum Sensing Activity of Aeromonas Caviae Strain YL12, A Bacterium Isolated from Compost

Sensors, 2014
Quorum sensing is a well-studied cell-to-cell communication method that involves a cell-density dependent regulation of genes expression mediated by signalling molecules. In this study, a bacterium isolated from a plant material compost pile was found to

The Ti plasmid of Agrobactetium tumefaciens harbors an attM-paralogous gene, aiiB, also encoding N-acyl homoserine lactonase activity

, 2003
The Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58 genome contains three putative N-acyl homoserine lactone (acyl-HSL) hydrolases, which are closely related to the lactonase AiiA of Bacillus.

Genome sequencing-assisted identification and the first functional validation of N-acyl-homoserine-lactone synthases from the Sphingomonadaceae family

, 2016
Background. Members of the genus Novosphingobium have been isolated from a variety of environmental niches. Although genomics analyses have suggested the presence of genes associated with quorum sensing signal production e.g., the N-acyl-homoserine ...

Acyl-ACP Substrate Recognition in \u3cem\u3eBurkholderia Mallei\u3c/em\u3e BmaI1 Acyl-Homoserine Lactone Synthase

, 2014
The acyl-homoserine lactone (AHL) autoinducer mediated quorum sensing regulates virulence in several pathogenic bacteria. The hallmark of an efficient quorum sensing system relies on the tight specificity in the signal generated by each bacterium.

N-acyl homoserine lactone-mediated modulation of plant growth and defense against Pseudoperonospora cubensis in cucumber

, 2020
N-acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs), a well-described group of quorum sensing molecules, may modulate plant defense responses and plant growth. However, there is limited knowledge regarding the defense responses of non-model crops to AHLs and the mechanism

Biofunctionalization of Silver Nanoparticles With Lactonase Leads to Altered Antimicrobial and Cytotoxic Properties

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2019
Background: N-acylated homoserine lactone lactonase which cleave the Acyl homoserine lactone molecules produced by biofilm-forming pathogens and silver nano-particles (AgNPs), are known for their antibacterial effect against several Gram-positive and ...

Characterization of quorum sensing genes and N-acyl homoserine lactones in Citrobacter amalonaticus strain YG6

, 2019
In the phylum of Proteobacteria, quorum sensing (QS) system is widely driven by synthesis and response of N-acyl homoserine lactone (AHL) signalling molecules. AHL is synthesized by LuxI homologue and sensed by LuxR homologue.
