Quorum sensing mechanism as a factor regulating virulence of Gram-negative bacteria
The metabolism of a high density population of bacteria is regulated by a quorum sensing mechanism. Cell-to-cell communication of microorganisms regulates the process of production of pathogenicity factors including formation and differentiation of bacterial biofilms. The role of the quorum sensing...
