Insights Into Nitric Oxide Modulated Quorum Sensing Pathways

Abstract excerpt

The emerging threat of drug resistant bacteria has prompted the investigation into bacterial signaling pathways responsible for pathogenesis. One such mechanism by which bacteria regulate their physiology during infection of a host is through a process known as quorum sensing. Bacteria use quorum sensing to regulate community-wide gene expression in response to changes in population density. In order to sense...
