Bioactivity | N-(3-Hydroxy-7-cis tetradecenoyl)-L-Homoserine lactone is an N-acyl-homoserine lactone (AHL) signaling molecule primarily secreted by Gram-negative bacteria for quorum sensing. It can be used to study bacterial quorum sensing mechanisms and their behavioral characteristics in the environment[1]. |
