Abstract excerpt
Quorum-sensing (QS) signals are widely employed by bacteria to regulate biological functions in response to cell densities. Previous studies showed that Burkholderia cenocepacia mostly utilizes two types of QS systems, including the N-acylhomoserine lactone (AHL) and cis-2-dodecenoic acid (BDSF) systems, to regulate biological functions. We demonstrated here that a LysR family transcriptional regulator, Bcal3178,...
