Many bacteria use quorum sensing (QS) to regulate cell-density dependent phenotypes that play critical roles in the maintenance of their associations with eukaryotic hosts. In Gram-negative bacteria, QS is primarily controlled by N-acylated L-homoserine lactone (AHL) signals and their cognate

Journal of the American Chemical Society, 129(44), 13613-13625 (2007-10-12)
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
