Frequency modulation of a bacterial quorum sensing response

Frequency modulation of a bacterial quorum sensing response

Quorum-sensing bacteria produce and secrete autoinducers that trigger a behavioral change in the population when reaching a certain threshold. Here, Bettenworth et al. show that autoinducer synthase gene expression in Sinorhizobium meliloti occurs in asynchronous stochastic pulses, and that physiolo...
