The <i>Legionella</i> autoinducer LAI-1 is delivered by outer membrane vesicles to promote inter-bacterial and inter-kingdom signaling

2023-08-24

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Legionella pneumophila is an environmental bacterium, which replicates in amoeba but also in macrophages, and causes a life-threatening pneumonia called Legionnaires’ disease. The opportunistic pathogen employs the α-hydroxyketone compound LAI-1 ( Legionella autoinducer-1) for intra-species and inter-kingdom signaling. LAI-1 is produced by the autoinducer synthase LqsA, but it is not known, how...
