Protein
4-coumaroyl-homoserine lactone synthase
Organism
Rhodopseudomonas palustris (strain ATCC BAA-98 / CGA009)
Function
Catalyzes the synthesis of 4-coumaroyl-homoserine lactone, a quorum-sensing (QS) autoinducer molecule which binds to RpaR transcriptional regulator to regulate expression of QS-dependent genes.
Similarity
Belongs to the autoinducer synthase family.
