N-Decanoyl-L-homoserine lactone
Quorum Sensing Molecule
N-Decanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (C10-HSL) acts as a quorum sensing molecule, primarily influencing intercellular communication in bacterial populations. Key biological activities include the inhibition of primary root growth in Arabidopsis, along with the induction of rapid increases in cytosolic free calcium ions (Ca2+) and reactive oxygen species (ROS). Additionally, C10-HSL enhances the activity of mitogen-activated protein kinase 6 (MPK6) and stimulates nitric oxide (NO) production in Arabidopsis roots, making it a valuable tool for research in plant signaling pathways and microbial interactions.
