Molecular Mechanisms of Phosphate Stress Activation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Quorum Sensing Systems

It is not fully understood how phosphate deficiency could influence the virulence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa through modulation of the bacterial QS systems. This report presents a systemic investigation on the impact of phosphate depletion on the hierarchy of quorum sensing systems of P. aeruginosa....
