What (who) is N-Acyl homoserine lactone - definition


N-Acyl homoserine lactone         
CLASS OF CHEMICAL COMPOUNDS
Homoserine Lactone; Homoserine lactone; N-Acyl Homoserine lactone; N-Acyl Homoserine Lactone; Acylated homoserine lactone; Acyl homoserine lactones; N-acyl homoserine lactone; Acyl-homoserine lactone; Acyl homoserine lactone; N Acyl homoserine lactone; N-acyl-homoserine lactone; Acylhomoserine lactone
N-Acyl homoserine lactones (Abbreviated as AHLs or N-AHLs) are a class of signaling molecules involved in bacterial quorum sensing. Quorum sensing is a method of communication between bacteria that enables the coordination of group-based behavior based on population density.

Lactonase (also acyl-homoserine lactonase) is a metalloenzyme, produced by certain species of bacteria, which targets and inactivates acylated homoserine lactones (AHLs).
Acyl-homoserine-lactone acylase         
CLASS OF ENZYMES
EC 3.5.1.97; AHL-acylase; N-acyl-homoserine lactone acylase; PA2385 protein; Quorum-quenching AHL acylase; Quorum-quenching enzyme; PVDQ; N-acyl-L-homoserine-lactone amidohydrolase
Acyl-homoserine-lactone acylase (, acyl-homoserine lactone acylase, AHL-acylase, AiiD, N-acyl-homoserine lactone acylase, PA2385 protein, quorum-quenching AHL acylase, quorum-quenching enzyme, PvdQ, QuiP) is an enzyme with systematic name N-acyl-L-homoserine-lactone amidohydrolase. This enzyme functions as a quorum quencher by catalysing the following chemical reaction
