چکیده

We synthesized a range of PQS (Pseudomonas quinolone signal; 2-heptyl-3-hydroxy-4(1H)-quinolone) analogues and tested them for their ability to stimulate MvfR-dependent pqsA transcription, MvfR-independent pyoverdine production, and membrane vesicle production. The structure-activity profile of the PQS analogues was different for each of these phenotypes. Certain inactive PQS analogues were also found to strongly synergize PQS-dependent pyoverdine production.

Evaluation of antibacterial activity of new N-piperazinyl quinolone derivatives with 1,3,4.thiadiazole group

quinolones are broad-spectrum antibacterial agents.they have many clinical uses which are increasing.quinolones exert antibacterial activity primarily by inhibiting bacterial DNA gyrase.the inhibition of DNA gyrase by the quinolones are greatly influenced by the nature of the C-7 substituent on the quinolones molecule.substitution of bulky functional groupd is also possible in C-7 position.furt...

Quinolone signaling in the cell-to-cell communication system of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Numerous species of bacteria use an elegant regulatory mechanism known as quorum sensing to control the expression of specific genes in a cell-density dependent manner. In Gram-negative bacteria, quorum sensing systems function through a cell-to-cell signal molecule (autoinducer) that consists of a homoserine lactone with a fatty acid side chain. Such is the case in the opportunistic human path...

Development and validation of a UHPLC-MS/MS procedure for quantification of the Pseudomonas Quinolone Signal in bacterial culture after acetylation for characterization of new quorum sensing inhibitors.

The appearance of antibiotic resistance requires novel therapeutic strategies. One approach is to selectively attenuate bacterial pathogenicity by interfering with bacterial cell-to-cell communication known as quorum sensing. The PQS quorum sensing system of Pseudomonas aeruginosa employs as signal molecule the Pseudomonas Quinolone Signal (PQS; 2-heptyl-3-hydroxy-4-(1H)-quinolone), a key contr...

Voltammetric profiling of redox-active metabolites expressed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa for diagnostic purposes.

In Pseudomonas aeruginosa, chemical deconvolution of the pyocyanin voltammetric signal allows its expression to be observed simultaneously with the quorum sensing molecule Pseudomonas quinolone signal (PQS). Such analysis has revealed that PQS might protect pyocyanin from self-oxidation, but also exert a pro-oxidative effect on pyocyanin under oxidative conditions to produce additional redox me...

Effects of Osmotic Stress on Rhamnolipid Synthesis and Time-Course Production of Cell-To-Cell Signal Molecules by Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Biosynthesis of biosurfactant rhamnolipids by Pseudomonas aeruginosa depends on two hierarchical quorum sensing systems, LasRI and RhlRI, which synthesize and sense the signal molecules N-(3-oxododecanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone (3OC₁₂-HSL) and N-butyryl-L-homoserine lactone (C₄-HSL), respectively. The Pseudomonas Quinolone Signal (PQS) is a third cell-to-cell signal molecule connecting these two...
