Characterization of a novel N-acylhomoserine lactonase, AidP, from Antarctic Planococcus sp.

Abstract Background N-acylhomoserine lactones (AHLs) are well-studied signalling molecules produced by some Gram-negative Proteobacteria for bacterial cell-to-cell communication or quorum sensing. We have previously demonstrated the degradation of AHLs by an Antarctic bacterium, Planococcus versutus...
