Description

Ketoacyl-homoserine lactone is a naturally occurring fatty acid derivative that is produced by many bacteria. It has been shown to be involved in biological processes, including the regulation of transcription and protein synthesis. Ketoacyl-homoserine lactone has been shown to be an important component of bacterial quorum sensing, which is used for communication between cells. This compound also regulates energy metabolism and light emission in some model systems. Ketoacyl-homoserine lactone has also been shown to be involved in immune responses and autoimmune diseases, as well as human pathogens such as Campylobacter jejuni and Mycoplasma pneumoniae.
