Abstract excerpt
The quorum quenching system of Agrobacterium tumefaciens is specifically activated upon entering the stationary phase. Evidence has shown that this system includes two key components: the IclR-type transcriptional factor AttJ (also named as BlcR) and the AHL-lactonase AttM (also named as BlcC). At exponential phase, AttJ binds to the promoter region of attM and thus suppresses the expression of attM. At...
