Modulation of antibiotic sensitivity and biofilm formation in Pseudomonas aeruginosa by interspecies signal analogues

Biofilm formation and antibiotic tolerance are regulated in Pseudomonas aeruginosa by the protein PA1396, which responds to diffusible signal factors (DSFs) produced by other bacteria. Here, An et al. synthesize DSF analogues that modulate PA1396 activity and thus biofilm formation and antibiotic to...
