Quorum Sensing in <i>Chromobacterium subtsugae</i> ATCC 31532 (Formerly <i>Chromobacterium violaceum</i> ATCC 31532): Transcriptomic and Genomic Analyses.

ABSTRACT: Chromobacterium spp. use a density-dependent cell-to-cell communication mechanism (quorum sensing, QS) to control various traits, including the pigment violacein biosynthesis. Recently, one of the type strains of this genus, previously deposited in the American Type Culture Collection under accession number C. violaceum 31532, was reclassified as C. subtsugae, making the QS data obtained for the first species irrelevant to the second. The goal of this study is to conduct transcriptomic and genomic analyses of the C. subtsugae ATCC 31532 (formerly C. violaceum ATCC 31532) strain to identify density-dependent regulated genes and the mechanisms of their QS control.
