Description:
N-3-hydroxydecanoyl-L-homoserine lactone is a small diffusible signaling molecule secreted by various bacteria and involved in quorum sensing, thereby controlling gene expression and affecting cellular metabolism. This lactone is produced via lactonolysis from 3-oxodecanoyl-homoserine lactone, altering quorum sensing or contributing to quorum quenching. The applications of this molecule include regulation of virulence and exoproteases.
