Design, Synthesis, and Evaluation of Transition-State Analogs as Inhibitors of the Bacterial Quorum Sensing Autoinducer Synthase CepI
2020-11-16
Abstract excerpt
Quorum sensing is a bacterial signaling system that involves the synthesis and detection of small signal molecules called autoinducers. A main class of autoinducers in Gram-negative bacteria are acylated homoserine lactones, produced by the LuxI family of autoinducer synthase enzymes and detected by the LuxR family of autoinducer receptors. Quorum sensing allows for changes in gene expression and bacterial beh...
