Self-sensing in Bacillus subtilis quorum-sensing systems.

Nature microbiology - 1 Jan 2018

Bareia Tasneem, Pollak Shaul, Eldar Avigdor

Abstract excerpt

Bacterial cell-cell signalling, or quorum sensing, is characterized by the secretion and groupwide detection of small diffusible signal molecules called autoinducers. This mechanism allows cells to coordinate their behaviour in a density-dependent manner. A quorum-sensing cell may directly respond to the autoinducers it produces in a cell-autonomous and quorum-independent manner, but the strength of this...
