Bacteria produce and respond to signal molecules to synchronize their population behaviours in a process known as Quorum Sensing (QS) signalling. The N-acyl homoserine lactone (AHL) QS system consisting of a pair of luxI/luxR gene homologs is one of the most well established QS systems. While AHL QS...
