In Silico Analysis of the Quorum Sensing Metagenome in Environmental Biofilm Samples
Quorum sensing (QS) is a sophisticated cell to cell signaling mechanism mediated by small diffusible molecules called “autoinducers.” This phenomenon is well studied in bacteria, where different QS systems are described that differ between Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. However, a common...
