Cinnamaldehyde and cinnamaldehyde derivatives reduce virulence in <it>Vibrio </it>spp. by decreasing the DNA-binding activity of the quorum sensing response regulator LuxR
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>To date, only few compounds targeting the AI-2 based quorum sensing (QS) system are known. In the present study, we screened cinnamaldehyde and substituted cinnamaldehydes for their ability to interfere with AI-2 based QS. The mechan...
