Chemical Talking with Living Systems: Molecular Switches Steer Quorum Sensing in Bacteria.

Luca Schweighauser1, Hermann A Wegner2.   

Abstract

New avenues in bacterial engineering: An azobenzene molecular switch has been incorporated into an autoinducer for quorum sensing (QS) in bacteria. The authors demonstrated that irradiation with different wavelengths of light influences the QS system thereby controlling gene expression as well as the phenotype, as exemplified by pyocyanin production.
