Abstract excerpt
Certain probiotic species of lactic acid bacteria, especially Lactobacillus plantarum, regulate bacteriocin synthesis through quorum sensing (QS) systems. In this study, we aimed to investigate the luxS-mediated molecular mechanisms of QS during bacteriocin synthesis by L. plantarum KLDS1.0391. In the absence of luxS, the 'spot-on-the-lawn' method showed that the bacteriocin production by L. plantarum KLDS1.0391...
