Directed evolution of Vibrio fischeri LuxR for improved response to butanoyl-homoserine lactone [PDF]
, 2007 LuxR is the 3-oxohexanoyl-homoserine lactone (3OC6HSL) dependent transcriptional activator of the prototypical acyl-homoserine lactone (AHL) quorum sensing system of Vibrio fischeri.

Detection of N-acylhomoserine lactones in lung tissues of mice infected with Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]
Microbiology, 2000 The pathogenesis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is associated with expression of virulence factors, many of which are controlled by two N:-acylhomoserine lactone (AHL)-based quorum-sensing systems. Escherichia coli strains equipped with a luxR-based monitor system expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP) in the presence of exogenous AHL molecules were ...

Have You Heard of Bonnie Bassler? A Historical Perspective on a Remarkable Career
Israel Journal of Chemistry, Volume 63, Issue 5-6, June 2023., 2023 Abstract The area of chemical communication in bacteria has grown explosively since the end of the 20th century. Among a number of key individuals and seminal findings that broke open this area of microbiology, the contributions of Bonnie Bassler and her colleagues are immense and multi‐layered.

Quorum Sensing: suatu Sistem Komunikasi Bakteri Fitopatogen, Peranannya pada Proses Infeksi, dan Peluangnya sebagai Basis Pengembangan Strategi Baru dalam Pengendalian Penyakit Tumbuhan [PDF]
, 2009 Previously, it is thought that bacterium is an autonomous unicellular organism with no capacity for collective behavior. Now the paradigm has changed since there are communication between intercell bacteria.

N-Acylhomoserine-lactone-mediated communication between Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Burkholderia cepacia in mixed biofilms [PDF]
Microbiology, 2001 Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Burkholderia cepacia are capable of forming mixed biofilms in the lungs of cystic fibrosis patients. Both bacteria employ quorum-sensing systems, which rely on N-acylhomoserine lactone (AHL) signal molecules, to co-ordinate expression of virulence factors with the formation of biofilms. As both bacteria utilize the same class
