<i>Enterococcus faecalis</i> V583 LuxS/AI-2 system is devoid of role in intra-species quorum-sensing but contributes to virulence in a <i>Drosophila</i> host model

2018-06-11

Abstract excerpt

The AI-2 i nterspecies quorum-sensing molecule is produced by the LuxS enzyme and has been ascribed a role in virulence in several bacteria. The nosocomial pathogen Enterococcus faecalis inhabits several different environments where multispecies communities are established. However, despite the presence of a luxS gene in this pathogen, its role in E. faecalis pathogenesis has never been assessed. In the present...
