So different and still so similar: The plant compound rosmarinic acid mimics bacterial homoserine lactone quorum sensing signals

Apart from inter-bacteria communication quorum sensing (QS) mechanisms also enable inter-domain interactions. To interfere with bacterial QS, plants were found to secrete compounds; most of which of unknown identity. We have identified the plant compound rosmarinic acid (RA) to modulate Pseudomonas...
