Autoinducers. 3OC6HSL is AI-1 which interacts with LuxR to activate pLuxCl, which activates Luxpr. 3OC12HSL is PAI-1, which interacts with LasR to activate pLAS, which activates pLAS Furanosyl borate diester is AI-2, which interacts with LuxQ to activate pLux, which activates pLuxpr.

Autoinducers • 3OC6HSL is AI-1 which interacts with LuxR to activate pLuxCl, which activates Luxpr. • 3OC12HSL is PAI-1, which interacts with LasR to activate pLAS, which activates pLAS • Furanosyl borate diester is AI-2, which interacts with LuxQ to activate pLux, which activates pLuxpr.
We used 4, 2-Hybrid systems (alpha gal4) • AB -- ZiF • CD – T25 and T18 • EF • VW Apparently there is a 3 hybrid system. So we could use 3, 2-hybrid systems and 1, 3-hybrid system.
Hin Recombinase • We found out this won’t work. • We can use small RNAs instead

Efficiency of Autoinducers They used 3-oxo-hexanoyl-homoserine lactone (OHHL)
Kinetics of Autoinducers We’re using a non-feedback system, so look at the triangles and the green.
