Steven E A Christiaen et al.
Journal of microbiological methods, 87(2), 213-219 (2011-08-23)
A large number of Gram-negative pathogens produce N-acylhomoserine lactones (AHLs) as signal molecules for quorum sensing (QS). This cell-cell communication system allows them to coordinate gene expression and regulate virulence. Therefore, strategies to inhibit QS are promising for the control
Sandrine Ghirardi et al.
Microbial ecology, 64(3), 725-737 (2012-05-12)
Rhizosphere competence of fluorescent pseudomonads is a prerequisite for the expression of their beneficial effects on plant growth and health. To date, knowledge on bacterial traits involved in rhizosphere competence is fragmented and derived mostly from studies with model strains.
Amanda L May et al.
Analytical chemistry, 84(3), 1243-1252 (2012-01-13)
A range of acylhomoserine lactones (AHLs) are used as intraspecies quorum sensing signals by Gram-negative bacteria, and the detection and quantitation of these molecules is of interest. This manuscript reports a liquid chromatographic-isotope dilution tandem mass spectrometric method for the
Walter Fast et al.
Trends in biochemical sciences, 37(1), 7-14 (2011-11-22)
N-Acyl-L-homoserine lactones (AHLs) are a major class of quorum-sensing signals used by Gram-negative bacteria to regulate gene expression in a population-dependent manner, thereby enabling group behavior. Enzymes capable of generating and catabolizing AHL signals are of significant interest for the

Biofouling control by quorum sensing (QS) inhibition and the influence of membrane surface characteristics on biofilm formation and QS inhibition were investigated. Pseudomonas putida isolated from the bio-fouled reverse osmosis (RO) membranes in a real plant was used. Acylase was
