Fsr quorum sensing system modulates the temporal development of Enterococcus faecalis biofilm matrix
4 Dec 2021
Abstract excerpt
Quorum sensing (QS) is a cell-to-cell communication process that regulates major pathogenic attributes in bacteria including biofilm formation, secretion of virulence factors, and antimicrobial resistance. The two-component Fsr-QS system of the nosocomial pathogen Enterococcus faecalis controls the production of extracellular gelatinase that contributes to biofilm development by enhancing the release of nucleic...
