Quorum-quenching limits quorum-sensing exploitation by signal-negative invaders.

Scientific reports - 5 Jan 2017

Tannières Mélanie, Lang Julien, Barnier Claudie, Shykoff Jacqui A, Faure Denis

Abstract excerpt

Some bacteria produce and perceive quorum-sensing (QS) signals that coordinate several behaviours, including the costly processes that are exoenzyme production and plasmid transfer. In the case of plasmid transfer, the emergence of QS signal-altered invaders and their policing are poorly documented. In Agrobacterium tumefaciens, the virulence Ti-plasmid encodes both synthesis and sensing of QS-signals, which...
