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-quenching activity of the AHL-lactonase from Bacillus licheniformis DAHB1 inhibits vibrio biofilm formation in vitro and reduces shrimp intestinal colonisation and mortality [PDF]

, 2014
Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a significant cause of gastroenteritis resulting from the consumption of undercooked sea foods and often cause significant infections in shrimp aquaculture. Vibrio virulence is associated with biofilm formation and is regulated

Antibiofilm and Anti‐Quorum Sensing Potential of Safely‐Synthesized Hydrated Zirconium Oxide‐Coated Alginate Beads against Some Pathogenic Bacteria

Journal of Chemistry, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Water is essential to life, but access to uncontaminated water remains a global challenge. Metal oxides possess particular characteristics required for removing heavy metals, inorganic and organic pollutants from wastewater as well as inhibiting microorganisms.

Identification of QuiP, the Product of Gene PA1032, as the Second Acyl-Homoserine Lactone Acylase of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 [PDF]

, 2006
The relevance of the acyl homoserine lactone (acyl-HSL) quorum signals N-3-oxododecanoyl-homoserine lactone (3OC12HSL) and N-butanoyl-homoserine lactone to the biology and virulence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is well investigated.

Degradation of N-Acylhomoserine Lactone Quorum Sensing Signaling Molecules by Potato Root Surface-Associated Chryseobacterium Strains

Microbes and Environments, 2011
N-Acylhomoserine lactones (AHLs) are used as quorum-sensing signaling molecules by many Gram-negative bacteria. Here, 413 bacterial strains were obtained from the roots of potato plants and screened for AHL-degrading bacteria using Chromobacterium violaceum reporter strains. Sixty one isolates degraded N-hexanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (C6-HSL) within 24

The integration host factor regulates multiple virulence pathways in bacterial pathogen Dickeya zeae MS2

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 23, Issue 10, Page 1487-1507, October 2022., 2022
IHF modulates Dickeya zeae virulence by controlling the production of virulence factor‐modulating and putrescine signals, phytotoxin and indigoidine, the luxR‐solo system, T1SS–T6SS, and multiple transcriptional regulators. Abstract Dickeya zeae is an aggressive bacterial phytopathogen that infects a wide range of host plants. It has been reported that

Detection of Quorum Sensing Activity in the Multidrug-Resistant Clinical Isolate Pseudomonas aeruginosa Strain GB11

Sensors, 2014
A multidrug-resistant clinical bacteria strain GB11 was isolated from a wound swab on the leg of a patient. Identity of stain GB11 as Pseudomonas aeruginosa was validated by using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time-of-flight mass ...

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.

Immobilized enzymes as potent antibiofilm agent

Biotechnology Progress, Volume 38, Issue 5, September/October 2022., 2022
Abstract Biofilm has been a point of concern in hospitals and various industries. They not only cause various chronic infections but are also responsible for the degradation of various medical appliances. Since the last decade, various alternate strategies are being adopted to combat the biofilm formed on various biotic and abiotic surfaces. The use of

Quorum Quenching Bacillus sonorensis Isolated from Soya Sauce Fermentation Brine

Sensors, 2012
An N-acylhomoserine lactone (AHL)-degrading bacterial strain, L62, was isolated from a sample of fermentation brine of Chinese soya sauce by using rich medium agar supplemented with soya sauce (10% v/v).
