Structural basis of DSF recognition by its receptor RpfR and its regulatory interaction with the DSF synthase RpfF.
The diffusible signal factors (DSFs) are a family of quorum-sensing autoinducers (AIs) produced and detected by numerous gram-negative bacteria. The DSF family AIs are fatty acids, differing in their acyl chain length, branching, and substitution but having in common a cis-2 double bond that is requ...
