The Role of Intrinsic Noise in Origin of Quorum Sensing
نویسنده
چکیده
Many biological phenomena about quorum sensing in bacteria are driven by experimentally and mathematically in the last few decades. Symbiosis, virulence etc. are the major area in which these theoretical models work well. But no specific origin was established so far which can explain quorum sensing itself. This weakly nonlocal fluid dynamical model of bacterial communication system introduces a pancake model which involves the intrinsic noise of the system to explain the origin of quorum sensing. The internal structure of quorum sensing analogues to Zeldovich model and origin of internal noise in this mechanism is responsible for quorum sensing.

Low concentrations of local honey modulate ETA expression, and quorum sensing related virulence in drug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa recovered from infected burn wounds
Objective(s): Honey’s ability to kill microorganisms and even eradication of chronic infections with drug-resistant pathogens has been documented by numerous studies. The present study is focused on the action of honey in its sub-inhibitory levels to impact on the pathogens coordinated behaviors rather than killing them. Materials and Methods:</strong...
متن کاملIn silico structural analysis of quorum sensing genes in Vibrio fischeri
Quorum sensing controls the luminescence of Vibrio fischeri through the transcriptional activator LuxR and the specific autoinducer signal produced by luxI. Amino acid sequences of these two genes were analyzed using bioinformatics tools. LuxI consists of 193 amino acids and appears to contain five α-helices and six ß-sheets when analyzed by SSpro8. LuxI belongs to the autoinducer synthetase fa...

In the present study, variation among different bacterial strains was observed in the plaques of tobacco chewers (TC) as compared to those from normal persons (non tobacco chewers) (NTC). Bacterial strain J1 (dominant in the plaques of NTC) did not initiate the process of adhesion (biofilm formation) until it appeared to have reached a required population density necessary for the production of...
متن کاملQuorum Sensing in Microbial Virulence
Cell-to cell communication occurs via a signaling pathway referred to as quorum sensing. There are four main types of these systems according to the chemical nature of signal molecules used by microorganisms to elicit expression of target genes in response to environmental stimuli or need of microbial communities. Type I system acts by using acyl homoserine lactones as signals to trigger the ex...
