Quorum sensing: a population-density component in the determination of bacterial phenotype.

Trends in biochemical sciences - 1 Jun 1996

Swift S, Throup J P, Williams P, Salmond G P, Stewart G S

Abstract excerpt

In bacteria, a network of cellular transduction mechanisms integrate signals from the bacterial environment to control gene expression, and thereby the bacterial phenotype. 'Quorum sensing' describes one such signalling mechanism in response to population density. It relies on the accumulation of...
