Unusual enantiomeric D,L-N-acyl homoserine lactones in Pectobacterium atrosepticum and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Quorum Sensing allows bacteria to sense their population density via diffusible N-acyl homoserine lactone (N-HL) signaling molecules. Upon reaching a high enough cell density, bacteria will collectively exhibit a phenotype. Until recently, methods used for detection of N-HLs have not considered the...
