Determination of quorum sensing system via biosensor strains and virulence factors in fish pathogen Aeromonas hydrophila

Abstract

Quorum Sensing is a system that produces critical virulence factors, virulent get bacteria and manages the disease as a result, and when they realize that the bacteria reach the majority they want by enabling them to communicate with the signal molecules themselves. In this study, Quorum Sensing system of Aeromonas hydrophila (2 strains) which is the causative agent of fish infection Motile Aeromonas Septicemia (MAS) disease was studied. In the strains, primarily the production of N-butanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (BHL) and N-(3-octododecanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone (OdDHL) signaling molecules was investigated via Chromobacterium violaceum CV026 and Agrobacterium tumafeciens NT1 biosensor strains. A. hydrophila produced BHL signaling molecule in assay committed using C. violaceum CV026 strain, producing OdDHL signaling molecule in assay committed using A. tumefaciens NT1 strain. A. hydrophila was investigated as phenotypically by the detection of BHL and OdDHL signaling molecules and in the presence of virulence factors controlled by quorum sensing system such as ramnolipid, elastase, protease, amylase, hemolysis production dependent on these molecules. The ramnolipid, protease, amylase and hemolysis activities of A. hydrophila strains were found to be positive. A. hydrophila has less elastase activity than Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 control strain. Research has emphasizing A. hydrophila strains are within a population and that they have a of quorum sensing system, shown that they act collectively that determined they produces dangerous virulence factors that cause disease in fish.
