Signal Disruption Leads to Changes in Bacterial Community Population

Signal Disruption Leads to Changes in Bacterial Community Population

The disruption of bacterial signaling (quorum quenching) has been proven to be an innovative approach to influence the behavior of bacteria. In particular, lactonase enzymes that are capable of hydrolyzing the N-acyl homoserine lactone (AHL) molecules used by numerous bacteria, were reported to inhi...
