摘要：

Multicellular bacterial communities (biofilms) abound in nature, and their successful formation and survival is likely to require cell-cell communication - including quorum sensing - to co-ordinate appropriate gene expression. The only mode of quorum sensing that is shared by both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria involves the production of the signalling molecule autoinducer 2 by LuxS. A survey of the current literature reveals that luxS contributes to biofilm development in some bacteria. However, inconsistencies prevent biofilm development being attributed to the production of AI2 in all cases.
