N-acyl homoserine lactones are degraded via an amidolytic activity in Comamonas sp. strain D1.

open access: yes, 2006
ABTSRACT: Comamonas strain D1 enzymatically inactivates quorum-sensing (QS) signal molecules of the N-acyl homoserine lactone (N-AHSL) family, and exhibits the broadest inactivation range of known bacteria.

Environmental and genetic factors influencing biofilm structure

open access: yes, 2000
It is increasingly evident that biofilms growing in a diverse range of medical, industrial, and natural environments form a similarly diverse range of complex structures (Stoodley et al., 1999a).

Quorum quenching by an N-acyl-homoserine lactone acylase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1

open access: yes, 2006
The virulence of the opportunistic human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 is controlled by an N-acyl-homoserine lactone (AHL)-dependent quorum-sensing system. During functional analysis of putative acylase genes in the P.

Synthesis and biological evaluation of new N-acyl-homoserine-lactone analogues, based on triazole and tetrazole scaffolds, acting as LuxR-dependent quorum sensing modulators.

open access: yes, 2012
International audienceNew analogues of N-acyl-homoserine-lactone (AHL), in which the amide was replaced by a triazole or tetrazole ring, were prepared and tested for their activity as LuxR-dependent QS modulators.

gfp-based N-acyl homoserine-lactone sensor systems for detection of bacterial communication

open access: yes, 2001
In order to perform single-cell analysis and online studies of N-acyl homoserine lactone (AHL)-mediated communication among bacteria, components of the Vibrio fischeri quorum sensor encoded by luxR-P-luxI have been fused to modified versions of gfpmut3 ...
