Acyl-Homoserine Lactone Quorum Sensing: From Evolution to Application
TL;DR: Quorum sensing is a widespread process in bacteria that employs autoinducing chemical signals to coordinate diverse, often cooperative activities such as bioluminescence, biofilm formation, and exoenzyme secretion and appreciating social dynamics is pertinent to understanding the efficacy of QS-inhibiting drugs and the evolution of resistance.
