Regulation of an antibiotic resistance efflux pump by quorum sensing and a TetR-family repressor in <i>Chromobacterium subtsugae</i>
2023-09-03
Abstract excerpt
The soil bacterium Chromobacterium substugae uses a single LuxI-R-type quorum-sensing system, CviI-R, to regulate genes in a cell density-dependent manner. CviI synthesizes the signal N -hexanoyl-homoserine lactone (C6-HSL) and CviR is a C6-HSL-responsive cytoplasmic transcription regulator. C6-HSL-bound CviR activates dozens of genes, for example the cdeAB-oprM cluster coding for an efflux pump conferring anti...
