Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and L. paraplantarum encode agr-like loci that interfere with quorum sensing and virulence gene expression in Staphylococcus aureus
2024-12-18
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>The pathogenicity of <italic>Staphylococcus aureus</italic> is largely regulated by the <italic>agr</italic> quorum sensing (QS) system encoded by <italic>agrBDCA</italic>, which coordinates virulence factor production through secretion and sensing of auto-inducing peptides (AIPs). <italic>agr</italic>-like systems are present also in coagulase-negative staphylococci, and several of the...
