Description: N-phenylacetyl-L-Homoserine lactone attenuates the group sensing of the pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii and can be used to study bacterial infections. Target: Others. Smiles: N(C(CC1=CC=CC=C1)=O)[C@@H]2C(=O)OCC2. References: Helen BLACKWELL,et al.Compound Combinations for Attenuation of Bacterial...

Quorum sensing is a regulatory system used by bacteria for controlling gene expression in response to increasing cell density. This regulatory process manifests itself with a variety of phenotypes including biofilm formation and virulence factor production. Coordinated gene expression is achieved by the production,...
