Biotic inactivation of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa quinolone signal molecule (2015)
Journal Article
Soh, E. Y.-C., Chhabra, S. R., Halliday, N., Heeb, S., Müller, C., Birmes, F. S., Fetzner, S., Cámara, M., Chan, K. G., & Williams, P. (2015). Biotic inactivation of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa quinolone signal molecule. Environmental Microbiology, 17(11), https://doi.org/10.1111/1462-2920.12857

In Pseudomonas aeruginosa, quorum sensing (QS) regulates the production of secondary metabolites, many of which are antimicrobials that impact on polymicrobial community composition. Consequently, quenching QS modulates the environmental impact of P.... Read More about Biotic inactivation of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa quinolone signal molecule.
