The latest findings on chemical communication among bacteria and potential areas for future research.

• Includes four sections that address cell-cell signaling during development and DNA exchange; signaling in relationship to humans, animals, and plants; production and detection of chemical signals; and eukaryotic quorum sensing.
• Presents new discoveries, including the structures of three bacterial signal synthases, signal receptors, mechanisms of signal transduction, pathways, and the expression of target genes.
• Provides a comprehensive overview of signal synthesis, detection, and its impacts on bacterial behavior.

Table of contents: 

I: Cell-Cell Signaling During Development and DNA Exchange:
This section likely explores how bacteria use chemical signals to coordinate processes like biofilm formation, sporulation, and the transfer of genetic material.
II: Cell-Cell Signaling in Mutualistic and Pathogenic Associations with Humans, Animals, and Plants:
This part focuses on how bacteria use quorum sensing to interact with their hosts, potentially triggering virulence factors in pathogenic bacteria or beneficial effects in mutualistic relationships.
III: Production, Detection, and Quenching of Chemical Signals:
This section delves into the molecular mechanisms involved in the synthesis, sensing, and degradation of bacterial signaling molecules, including the role of specific enzymes and receptors.
IV: Eukaryotic Quorum Sensing and Interactions with Quorum-Sensing Bacteria:
This section examines how eukaryotic organisms, like humans, might sense and respond to bacterial signals, and how this can influence host-pathogen interactions.
