Quorum Sensing in <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> Biofilms

2 Mar 2004

Abstract excerpt

Several serious diseases are caused by biofilm-associated Staphylococcus aureus, infections in which the accessory gene regulator (agr) quorum-sensing system is thought to play an important role. We studied the contribution of agr to biofilm development, and we examined agr-dependent transcription in biofilms. Under some conditions, disruption of agr expression had no discernible influence on biofilm formation,...
