A new class of quorum quenching molecules from Staphylococcus species affects communication and growth of gram-negative bacteria. [PDF]
The knowledge that many pathogens rely on cell-to-cell communication mechanisms known as quorum sensing, opens a new disease control strategy: quorum quenching.

Crystal Structures of a Quorum-quenching Antibody [PDF]
A large number of Gram-negative bacteria employ N-acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs) as signaling molecules in quorum sensing, which is a population density-dependent mechanism to coordinate gene expression. Antibody RS2-1G9 was elicited against a lactam mimetic of the N-acyl homoserine lactone and represents the only reported monoclonal antibody that ...

Isolation of Quorum Quenching Microorganisms and Screening Methods
Quorum sensing is one of the regulatory mechanisms of gene expression that has received the most attention in the last two decades. In consequence, its interruption by means of quorum quenching (QQ) strategies is highly relevant.

Evolution of Resistance to Quorum Quenching in Digital Organisms [PDF]
Quorum sensing (QS) is a collective behavior whereby actions of individuals depend on the density of the surrounding population. Bacteria use QS to trigger secretion of digestive enzymes, formation and destruction of biofilms, and, in the case of pathogenic organisms, expression of virulence factors that cause disease. Investigations of mechanisms that

Screening of Quorum Quenching Activity of Bacteria Isolated from Ant Lion
Bacterial intercellular communication or quorum sensing controls the pathogenesis of many medically important organisms. Therefore, it is important to isolate bacteria that can disintegrate the communication, in a process called quorum quenching ...

Quorum-Sensing Inhibition by Gram-Positive Bacteria
The modern paradigm assumes that interspecies communication of microorganisms occurs through precise regulatory mechanisms. In particular, antagonism between bacteria or bacteria and fungi can be achieved by direct destruction of the targeted cells ...
