Dodecanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (CAS: 137173-46-7) is a long-chain acyl homoserine lactone (AHL) quorum sensing signaling molecule primarily produced by Gram-negative bacteria for intercellular communication.

Main Functions and Applications

  1. Quorum Sensing Signal Molecule

    • Acts as a signaling molecule in bacterial quorum sensing (QS) systems, regulating gene expression at specific cell population densities.

    • Involved in controlling biofilm formation, virulence factor secretion, and antibiotic synthesis.

  2. Microbiology and Infection Mechanism Research

    • Used to study bacterial communication mechanisms and their impact on environmental adaptation and pathogenicity.

    • Serves as a key target for developing QS inhibitors and novel antimicrobial drugs.

⚠️ Note

This product is intended primarily for research use and is not suitable for direct clinical or food additive applications.
