Surfactin: A Quorum-Sensing Signal Molecule to Relieve CCR in Bacillus amyloliquefaciens
Bacillus utilize preferred sugars such as glucose over other carbon sources due to carbon catabolite repression (CCR). Surfactin is a small signal molecule to regulate the quorum-sensing (QS) response such as biofilm formation and sporulation in B. subtilis. Here, the srfA operon for synthesis of su...
