Understanding quorum sensing fundamentally reframes microscopic organisms not as solitary entities, but as highly social, coordinated societies. By intercepting these chemical lexicons, modern science can sustainably manage devastating human diseases, balance complex ecosystems.

Microbial #dysbiosis alters chemical cues in the oral #microbiome, but how do commensals sense these? This study shows that #Streptococcus salivarius detects dysbiosis metabolites & repurposes a peptide #QuorumSensing receptor to drive antibacterial predation @PLOSBiology https://plos.io/4rtVSbf

Wow, I hadn't realised Nigel Franks didn't publish about this until 2015. He'd been talking about it as long as I'd been at Bath (since 2002), probably longer. Gives me hope for some of my own #cooperation work that's languishing. IMO, #quorumSensing explains a LOT. www.nature.com/articles/sre...

How ants use quorum sensing to...

Many bacteria use #QuorumSensing to control genes based on population density. This Primer explores a @PLOSBiology study showing that in P. aeruginosa, two QS circuits activate each other, enhancing robustness & explaining redundancy. Paper: https://plos.io/3I7DhRG Primer: https://plos.io/4niSZZd

Bacterial #QuorumSensing is often assumed to follow a strict hierarchy. This study finds that #Pseudomonas aeruginosa instead uses a reciprocal, cooperative system that enhances responsiveness to population density & environmental changes @PLOSBiology https://plos.io/3I7DhRG

Winzig klein, doch hochkomplex: #Bakterien sind faszinierende Organismen. Mithilfe chemischer Signale - dem sogenannten #QuorumSensing - koordinieren sie ihr Verhalten kommunizieren in Lebensgemeinschaften.

#Vibrio #bacteria sense and respond to changes in cell density & nutrients. @biolluminator &co reveal a link between #QuorumSensing & metabolic regulation that confers fitness advantages in the presence of certain nutrients #PLOSBiology https://plos.io/4fI0AN1

Some bacterial #QuorumSensing (QS) systems use oligopeptide pheromones. @AlbertoMarina14 &co show that extracellular proteases yield multiple #pheromones from tandemly duplicated propeptides, adding complexity to QS responses #PLOSBiology https://plos.io/46PGqxl

How eavesdropping viruses battle it out to infect us

Bonnie Bassler and her team have found that dozens of viruses respond to quorum sensing or other chemical signals from bacteria. Their work appears in the current issue of Nature

exciting stuff, but it's about #phages using the #QuorumSensing of #bacteria, so not at all about how "to infect us" - unless the writer identifies as a bacterium. #science #ecology #MicrobialEcology #viruses #bacteriophages
