Disruption of Quorum Sensing and Virulence in Burkholderia cenocepacia by a Structural Analogue of the cis -2-Dodecenoic Acid Signal
14 Feb 2019
Abstract excerpt
Burkholderia cenocepacia is an important opportunistic pathogen which can cause life-threatening infections in susceptible individuals, particularly in cystic fibrosis and immunocompromised patients. It usually employs two types of quorum sensing (QS) systems, including the cis -2-dodecenoic acid (BDSF) system and N -acyl homoserine lactone (AHL) system, to regulate virulence. In this study, we have designed and...
