Annual Review of Microbiology, 2001
▪ Abstract Quorum sensing is the regulation of gene expression in response to fluctuations in cell-population density. Quorum sensing bacteria produce and release chemical signal molecules called autoinducers that increase in concentration as a function of cell density.

Quorum Sensing in Staphylococci
Annual Review of Genetics, 2008The staphylococcal agr locus encodes a quorum sensing (QS) system that controls the expression of virulence and other accessory genes by a classical two-component signaling module. Like QS modalities in other Gram-positive bacteria, agr encodes an autoactivating peptide (AIP) that is the inducing ligand for AgrC, the agr signal receptor.

Quorum-sensing signals are found in many species of legume-nodulating rhizobia. In a well-characterized strain of R. leguminosarum biovar viciae, a variety of autoinducers are synthesised, and all have been identified as N-acyl-homoserine lactones.

Farnesol and Candida albicans: Quorum Sensing or Not Quorum Sensing?
Israel Journal of Chemistry, 2015AbstractQuorum sensing (QS) molecules function within communities of single‐cell organisms to allow concerted behavior in response to changing conditions, and certain criteria have been established to determine whether a particular molecule is quorum sensing or not.

Quorum sensing of pathogenic bacteria and quorum-sensing inhibitors
Chinese Science Bulletin, 2012The emergence of antibiotic-resistant and especially multidrug-resistant pathogenic bacteria intensifies the need to screen new drug targets and develop new antibacterial drugs. Bacteria coordinate their virulent behaviors in a cell density-dependent manner known as quorum sensing (QS).

Nowadays, cell to cell communication and co-operation has been proved to be not only found in eukaryotes,but also in prokaryotes. In bacteria, this communication is termed quorum sensing (QS). QS enables bacteria toact as multicellular organisms. Bacteria determine small hormone-like molecules termed auto inducer which producedby another bacteria by ...

Quorum Sensing in Fungal Species
Annual Review of Microbiology, 2021Quorum sensing (QS) is one of the most studied cell-cell communication mechanisms in fungi. Research in the last 20 years has explored various fungal QS systems that are involved in a wide range of biological processes, especially eukaryote- or fungus-specific behaviors, mirroring the significant contribution of QS regulation to fungal biology and ...

Mechanisms of quorum sensing and strategies for quorum sensing disruption in aquaculture pathogens
Journal of Fish Diseases, 2014AbstractIn many countries, infectious diseases are a considerable threat to aquaculture. The pathogenicity of micro‐organisms that infect aquaculture systems is closely related to the release of virulence factors and the formation of biofilms, both of which are regulated by quorum sensing (QS). Thus, QS disruption is a potential strategy for preventing

Trends in Quorum Sensing and Quorum Quenching
2023Quorum sensing (QS), controls the characteristics of microbe populations through the detection of the concentrations of signal molecules, which are not only released but also produced by bacteria. QS regulates both biochemical and physiological functions viz., release of quorum signal molecules, biofilm formation, reduction in virulence, production of ...
