Description
N-(β-Ketocaproyl)-L-homoserine lactone (3-oxo-C6-HSL) is one of the quorum signaling molecules for V. fischeri. 3-oxo-C6-HSL is produced by LuxI autoinducer synthase catalyzed reaction between S-adenosylmethionine and acylated-acyl carrier proteins (Acyl-ACPs). It can be used in analyzing the expression of the orthogonal specialized reporter genes.
