N-(3-Oxopentanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone, CAS 148433-21-0

Product Description: N-(3-Oxopentanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone is an autoinducer, a kind of chemical signal molecule which passively diffuses across the bacterial envelope and accumulates intracellularly at high bacterial densities. It may bind to a protein related to the LuxR protein of V. fischeri and causes cell density-dependent gene expression. N-(3-Oxopentanoyl)-L-homoserine can be used for research of quorum sensing[1].

Applications: COVID-19-immunoregulation

Formula: C9H13NO4
