Interference with Pseudomonas quinolone signal synthesis inhibits virulence factor expression by Pseudomonas aeruginosa
(East Carolina University, 2001-09-25)
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that controls numerous virulence factors through intercellular signals. This bacterium has two quorum-sensing systems (las and rhl), which act through the intercellular ...
Autolysis and Autoaggregation in Pseudomonas aeruginosa Colony Morphology Mutants
(East Carolina University, 2002-12)
Two distinctive colony morphologies were noted in a collection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa transposon insertion mutants. One set of mutants formed wrinkled colonies of autoaggregating cells. Suppressor analysis of a subset ...
Pseudomonas aeruginosa PqsA Is an Anthranilate-Coenzyme A Ligase
(East Carolina University, 2008-02)
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic human pathogen which relies on several intercellular signaling systems for optimum population density-dependent regulation of virulence genes. The Pseudomonas quinolone signal ...
Solubility and Bioactivity of the Pseudomonas Quinolone Signal Are Increased by a Pseudomonas aeruginosa-Produced Surfactant
(East Carolina University, 2005-02)
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a gram-negative bacterium that causes serious infections in immunocompromised individuals and cystic fibrosis patients. This opportunistic pathogen controls many of its virulence factors and ...
Regulation of Pseudomonas Quinolone Signal Synthesis in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
(East Carolina University, 2005-07)
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that causes chronic lung infections in cystic fibrosis patients and is a major source of nosocomial infections. This bacterium controls many virulence factors by using ...
