Abstract: | Vanadium bromoperoxidase was isolated and cloned from the marine red alga Delisea pulchra. This enzyme catalyzes the bromolactonization of 4-pentynoic acid forming 5E-bromo-methylidenetetrahydro-2-furanone, a compound which is shown herein to inhibit quorum sensing in the engineered reporter strain, Agrobacterium tumefaciens NTL4. |
