Quorum sensing is a regulatory system used by bacteria for controlling gene expression in response to increasing cell density.[1] This regulatory process manifests itself with a variety of phenotypes including biofilm formation and virulence factor production.[2] Coordinated gene expression is achieved by the production, release, and detection of small diffusible signal molecules called autoinducers. The N-acylated homoserine lactones (AHLs) comprise one such class of autoinducers, each of which... | |||

N-3-oxo-hexadecanoyl-L-Homoserine lactone

N-3-oxo-hexadecanoyl-L-Homoserine lactone is an unusual, substituted, long-chain N-acyl-homoserine lactone (AHL) produced by some bacteria, including strains of Agrobacterium vitis and Pseudomonas. Like other AHLs, this C16-containing form is thought to be involved in quorum sensing. Substituted, long-chain AHLs, including N-3-oxo-tetradecanoyl-L-homoserine lactone , prime for systemic acquired resistance to pathogen attack in plants. |
