Application
N-(3-Oxotetradecanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone (3-Oxo-C14-HSL), a member of a family of acyl homoserine lactones, may be used to determine its mechanisms and specificity of action as a signaling molecule involved in the regulation of bacterial quorum sensing.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Acyl homoserine lactone used as an autoinducer of quorum signaling by Sinorhizobium meliloti,  Yersinia enterocolitica, and other Gram-negative bacteria.
N-(3-Oxotetradecanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone (3-oxo-C14-HSL) is among a group of homoserine lactones that includes N-octanoyl-homoserine lactone (N-C8-HSL), N-(3-oxodecanoyl) homoserine-L-lactone (3-oxo-C10 HSL), N-(3-oxododecanoyl)homoserine-L-lactone (3-oxo-C12-HSL), N-(3-hydroxydecanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone, and N-(3-hydroxyoctanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone involved in the processes of bacterial quorum sensing. These homoserine lactones are used to study the processes and mechanisms of bacterial quorum sensing.

Mammalian paraoxonases (PONs) are a unique, highly conserved family of calcium-dependent esterases consisting of PON1, PON2, and PON3. The PONs can hydrolyze the lactone ring of a range of N-acyl-L: -homoserine lactone (AHL) quorum sensing signaling molecules, rendering them inactive.

N-Acylhomoserine lactones (AHLs) are used as quorum-sensing signaling molecules by many Gram-negative bacteria. Here, 413 bacterial strains were obtained from the roots of potato plants and screened for AHL-degrading bacteria using Chromobacterium violaceum reporter strains. Sixty one isolates degraded N-hexanoyl-L-homoserine

Quorum sensing plays a central role in regulating many community-derived symbiotic and pathogenic relationships of bacteria, and as such has attracted much attention in recent years. Acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs) are important signaling molecules in the quorum sensing gene-regulatory processes found
