Application

AHL analog is a strong, broad-spectrum inhibitor of numerous LuxR-type receptors (e.g.: LuxR from Vibrio fischeri, LasR from P. aeruginosa, and TraR from Agrobacterium tumefaciens). This compound represents a good choice for initial testing of LuxR-type receptor inhibition.

Bacterial quorum sensing is mediated by low molecular-weight signals and plays a critical role in both the pathogenesis of infectious disease and beneficial symbioses. There is significant interest in the development of synthetic ligands that can intercept bacterial quorum sensing
Grant D Geske et al.

Bacteria use a language of low molecular weight ligands to assess their population densities in a process called quorum sensing. This chemical signaling process plays a pivotal role both in the pathogenesis of infectious disease and in beneficial symbioses. There
