Quorum Sensing Signaling Molecules Positively Regulate c-di-GMP Effector PelD Encoding Gene and PEL Exopolysaccharide Biosynthesis in Extremophile Bacterium <i>Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans</i>

Quorum Sensing Signaling Molecules Positively Regulate c-di-GMP Effector PelD Encoding Gene and PEL Exopolysaccharide Biosynthesis in Extremophile Bacterium <i>Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans</i>

<i>Acidithiobacillus</i> species are fundamental players in biofilm formation by acidophile bioleaching communities. It has been previously reported that <i>Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans</i> possesses a functional quorum sensing mediated by acyl-homoserine lactones (AHL), in...
