Abstract excerpt
The LuxI/LuxR system, which produces and perceives N-acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs), plays a significant role in regulating pathogenesis and communication in gram-negative bacteria. A homologous system exists in Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst) DC3000, which is encoded by the single-copy genes psyI/psyR. We created a double-knockout mutant of the AHL synthase (psyI) and the AHL receptor (psyR) genes in Pst...
