Abstract
In this study we identify a volatile compound produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which can specifically activate the LuxR quorum-sensing response regulator of Vibrio fischeri. Comparative gas-chromatography analysis between P. aeruginosa wild type and a ΔlasR mutant strain implied that the active volatile is 2-aminoacetophenone. The use of synthetic 2-aminoacetophenone and in silico docking analyses verified the activity of the molecule and provided putative interacting residues within the binding site.Entities:
