QsrO a novel regulator of quorum-sensing and virulence in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

QsrO a novel regulator of quorum-sensing and virulence in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

In Pseudomonas aeruginosa, the production of many secreted virulence factors is controlled by a quorum-sensing (QS) circuit, constituted of transcriptional activators (LasR, RhlR, PqsR) and their cognate signaling molecules (3-oxo-C12-HSL, C4-HSL, PQS). QS is a cooperative behavior that is beneficia...
