Quorum sensing regulates denitrification in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1.
Anaerobic growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 was affected by quorum sensing. Deletion of genes that produce N-acyl-l-homoserine lactone signals resulted in an increase in denitrification activity, which was repressed by exogenous signal molecules. The effect of the las quorum-sensing system was dependent on the rhl quorum-sensing system in regulating denitrification.
متن کاملQuorum-sensing antagonistic activities of azithromycin in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1: a global approach.
The administration of macrolides such as azithromycin for chronic pulmonary infection of cystic fibrosis patients has been reported to be of benefit. Although the mechanisms of action remain obscure, anti-inflammatory effects as well as interference of the macrolide with Pseudomonas aeruginosa virulence factor production have been suggested to contribute to an improved clinical outcome. In this...
متن کاملBacteria that inhibit quorum sensing decrease biofilm formation and virulence in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1.
In this study, we investigated the biotherapeutic potential of previously isolated quorum quenching (QQ) bacteria. Some of them produce and secrete small compounds that inhibit quorum sensing (QS), others quench QS by enzymatic degradation of N-acylhomoserine lactones (AHLs). The supernatant of cultures of these isolates was tested for inhibitory properties against P. aeruginosa PAO1 biofilms. ...

متن کاملSocial cheating in Pseudomonas aeruginosa quorum sensing.
In a process termed quorum sensing, bacteria use diffusible chemical signals to coordinate cell density-dependent gene expression. In the human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa, quorum sensing controls hundreds of genes, many of which encode extracellular virulence factors. Quorum sensing is required for P. aeruginosa virulence in animal models. Curiously, quorum sensing-deficient variants, most...
