Aims: To characterize the luxO gene in fish pathogen Vibrio alginolyticus MVP01 and
investigate its roles in regulation of extracellular products (ECP) and siderophore …

Chemical molecules are used by microorganisms to communicate with each other. Quorum
sensing is the mechanism through which microorganisms regulate their population density …

Whole‐cell quantitative proteomic analyses were conducted to investigate the change from
an extracellular to intracellular lifestyle for Porphyromonas gingivalis, a Gram‐negative …

The term 'quorum sensing'describes intercellular bacterial communication which regulates
bacterial gene expression according to population cell density. Bacteria produce and …

Paracoccus denitrificans is a valuable model organism due to its versatile respiration
capability and bioenergetic flexibility, both of which are critical to its survival in different …

Interspecies signalling between Porphyromonas gingivalis and Streptococcus gordonii
serves to constrain development of dual species communities. Contact with S. gordonii …

The article focuses on the concepts of periodontal diseases. It discusses the quorum
sensing regulation of gene expression and biofilm growth in the oral bacteria and …

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) play an essential role in microbe–microbe and plant–
microbe interactions. We investigated the interaction between two plant growth-promoting …

LuxS is an enzyme involved in the activated methyl cycle and the by-product autoinducer-2
(AI-2) was a quorum sensing signal in some species. In our previous study, the functional …

Heme (iron protoporphyrin IX, FePPIX) is the main source of iron and PPIX for host-
associated pathogenic bacteria, including members of the Bacteroidota (formerly …
