Inhibition of bacterial quorum sensing (general concept)
Abstract
The scientific review outlines current data characterizing the main provisions on the functioning of the mechanism of the sensory quorum in the system of interbacterial communications. A general characteristic of various compounds possessing an overwhelming influence on quorum sensory is presented. It is emphasized that the mechanism of sensory quorum inhibition is represented by three functional groups: a group of substances that suppress the activity of autoinducer synthases; a group of substances that block the autoinducer receptors; a group of substances that interfere with autoinducers interaction with their specific receptor.
