Classifying the Topology of AHL-Driven Quorum Sensing Circuits in Proteobacterial Genomes

Virulence and adaptability of many Gram-negative bacterial species are associated with an <em>N</em>-acylhomoserine lactone (AHL) gene regulation mechanism called quorum sensing (QS). The arrangement of quorum sensing genes is variable throughout bacterial genomes, althou...
