alpha-Hydroxyketone Synthesis and Sensing by Legionella and Vibrio [PDF]
Bacteria synthesize and sense low molecular weight signaling molecules, termed autoinducers, to measure their population density and community complexity. One class of autoinducers, the α-hydroxyketones (AHKs), is produced and detected by the water-borne
