Bioactivity | N-cis-octadec-9Z-enoyl-L-Homoserine lactone is a potent inhibitor of AhyI. AhyI (expressing acylhomoserine lactone) is responsible for the biosynthesis of autoinducer-1 (AI-1), commonly referred to as a quorum sensing (QS) signaling molecule, which plays an essential role in bacterial communication. N-cis-octadec-9Z-enoyl-L-Homoserine lactone is a competitive inhibitor of AI-1 biosynthesis[1]. |
