Heterocyclic Chemistry Applied to the Design of <i>N</i>-Acyl Homoserine Lactone Analogues as Bacterial Quorum Sensing Signals Mimics

<i>N</i>-acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs) are small signaling molecules used by many Gram-negative bacteria for coordinating their behavior as a function of their population density. This process, based on the biosynthesis and the sensing of such molecular signals, and referred to as Quor...
