Quorum signaling and sensing by nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae
Copyright policy )Quorum signaling and sensing by nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae
Quorum signals are diffusible factors produced by bacteria that coordinate communal responses. For nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi), a series of recent papers indicate that production and sensing of quorum signals are determinants of biofilm formation/maturation and persistence in vivo. In this mini-review I will summarize the current knowledge about quorum signaling/sensing by this organism, and identify specific topics for additional study.
