Unravelling the genome of long chain N-acylhomoserine lactone-producing Acinetobacter sp. strain GG2 and identification of its quorum sensing synthase gene
Myriad proteobacteria use N-acyl homoserine lactone (AHL) molecules as quorum-sensing (QS) signals to regulate different physiological functions, including virulence, antibiotic production and biofilm formation. Many of these proteobacteria possess LuxI/LuxR system as the QS mechanism. Recently, we...
