Roseovarius tolerans EL-164 is a member of the Roseobacter clade, a group of marine bacteria within the Alphaproteobacteria. It produces different N-acylhomoserine lactone (AHL) autoinducers as well as five AHL-related but functionally different compounds, the N-acylated alanine methyl esters. The size of the draft genome is 3,749,755 bp.

The attKLM operon encodes a lactonase (AttM) that hydrolyzes acylhomoserine lactone autoinducers, as well as two putative dehydrogenases (AttK and AttL). Here we show that AttK, AttL, and AttM collectively covert gamma-butyrolactone to succinate. Two metabolic intermediates, gamma-hydroxybutyrate and succinic semialdehyde, inactivated the AttJ repressor in vitro and induced attKLM transcription...

Here, we report a draft 5.25-Mb genome sequence of Pseudoalteromonas sp. 520P1, a marine violacein-producing bacterium isolated from the Pacific coast of Japan. Genome annotation by BLAST searches revealed the presence of one acylhomoserine lactone (AHL) synthase (luxI) and five AHL receptor protein (luxR) gene homologs.

The rice endophyte Pantoea ananatis AMG521 shows several plant growth-promoting properties and promotes rice yield increases. Its draft genome was estimated at 4,891,568 bp with 4,704 coding sequences (CDS). The genome encodes genes for N-acylhomoserine lactone (AHL) synthases, AHL hydrolases, hyperadherence (yidQ, yidP, and yidR), fusaric acid resistance, and oxidation of lignin, highlighting ...

Chryseobacterium sp. strain StRB126 was isolated from a potato root and showed N-acylhomoserine lactone-degrading activity. Here, we present the complete 5,503,743-bp genome sequence of StRB126, which has a G+C content of 35.6% and carries 4,828 protein-coding genes, six rRNA operons, and 80 tRNA genes.

Microbacterium testaceum is an endophytic Gram-positive bacterium that resides within plant hosts. M. testaceum StLB037 was isolated from potato leaves and shows N-acylhomoserine lactone-degrading activity. Here, we present the 3.98-Mb complete genome sequence of StLB037, with an average GC content of 70.28%.

Rhodobacteraceae strain PD-2 was isolated from the marine microalga Prorocentrum donghaiense. It has algicidal activity toward its host and could produce N-acylhomoserine lactone signals. Here, we present the draft genome of strain PD-2, which contains 5,227,214 bp with an average GC content of 66.19%. There were 4,864 encoding gene sequences and two clusters of luxI and luxR homologues identif...

A multidrug-resistant clinical bacteria strain GB11 was isolated from a wound swab on the leg of a patient. Identity of stain GB11 as Pseudomonas aeruginosa was validated by using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). Detection of the production of signaling molecules, N-acylhomoserine lactones (AHLs), was conducted using three different ba...

Pseudomonas sp. strain StFLB209 is isolated from the potato leaf and produces N-acylhomoserine lactone quorum-sensing signal compounds. Here, we present the 6,332,373-bp complete genome sequence of StFLB209, with a G+C content of 60.7%, which carries 5,598 protein-coding genes, 6 rRNA operons, and 69 tRNA genes.

Aeromonas hydrophila is a well-known waterborne pathogen that recently was found to infect humans. Here, we report the draft genome of a freshwater isolate from a Malaysian waterfall, A. hydrophila strain M023, which portrays N-acylhomoserine lactone-dependent quorum sensing.
