N-octanoyl-L-Homoserine lacton

Imaging N-Acyl Homoserine Lactone Quorum Sensing In Vivo

In order to study N -acyl homoserine lactone (AHL)-based quorum sensing in vivo, we present a protocol using an Escherichia coli strain equipped with a luxR -based monitor system, which in the presence of exogenous AHL molecules expresses

High-Performance Liquid Chromatography Analysis of N-Acyl Homoserine Lactone Hydrolysis by Paraoxonases

Mammalian paraoxonases (PONs) are a unique, highly conserved family of calcium-dependent esterases consisting of PON1, PON2, and PON3. The PONs can hydrolyze the lactone ring of a range of N-acyl-l -homoserine lactone (AHL) quorum sensing

Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry for the Detection and Quantification of N-Acyl-l-Homoserine Lactones and 4-Hydroxy-2-Alkylquinolines

High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled in-line with mass spectrometry (MS) permits rapid and specific identification and quantification of N -acyl-l -homoserine lactones (AHLs) and 4-hydroxy-2-alkylquinolines (HAQs
