Tetrathionate sensing enables Vibrio parahaemolyticus to repress quorum sensing for intestinal colonization
Abstract Quorum sensing (QS) enables bacterial coordination of group behaviors, yet how enteric pathogens modulate QS during intestinal colonization remains poorly understood. Here, we demonstrated that Vibrio parahaemolyticus represses QS to promote gut colonization through sensing of self‑generated tetrathionate deri...
