Deletion of luxI increases luminescence of Vibrio fischeri

ABSTRACT Bioluminescence in Vibrio fischeri is regulated by a quorum-dependent signaling system composed of LuxI and LuxR. LuxI generates N-3-oxohexanoyl homoserine lactone (3OC6-HSL), which triggers LuxR to activate transcription of the luxICDABEG operon responsible for bioluminescence. Surprisingl...
