Abstract excerpt
Numerous gram-negative bacteria have quorum-sensing systems and produce AHL as a quorum-sensing signal molecule. In this study, we demonstrated that Methylobacterium populi P-1M, an isolate from a pink-pigmented household biofilm, produced two AHLs, C14:1-HSL as a predominant product and 3OHC14-HSL as a minor product. The complete genome sequence of M. populi P-1M revealed the presence of genes that are predicted...
