the enzyme is involved in one of the the quorum sensing systems that function in parallel to control the density-dependent expression of the luciferase structural operon luxCDABE. Each system is composed of a sensor, sensor I or sensor 2, and its cognate autoinducer, AI-1 or AI-2. LuxS has a role in the enzymatic synthesis of AI-2 |

growth phase regulation of flaA expression in Helicobacter pylori is luxS-dependent |
4.4.1.21 | more |
LuxS is related on the one hand to down-regulation of competence, and on the other hand to attenuation of autolysis in cultures entering stationary phase. The impact of LuxS on competence, but not on autolysis, involves cel-cell communication |
4.4.1.21 | more |
the LuxS/AI-2 (autoinducer 2) system does not appear to contribute to the overall fitness of Staphylococcus aureus RN6390B during intracellular growth in epithelial cells |
4.4.1.21 | more |
LuxS catalyzes production of the AI-2 autoinducer molecule for a second quorum sensing system |
4.4.1.21 | more |
LuxS catalyzes the last step in the production of autoinducer-2 |
4.4.1.21 | more |
LuxS is functional in the autoinducer-2-mediated quorum sensing and may regulate different behaviors including biofilm formation and virulence |
4.4.1.21 | more |
LuxS is involved in the activated methyl cycle and influences biofilm formation |
4.4.1.21 | more |
LuxS is required for normal biofilm development |
4.4.1.21 | more |
LuxS plays an important role in the regulation of motility and flagella biogenesis |
