Quorum-sensing的意思|示意

Quorum-sensing is a physiologic accommodation of bacterial in gene expression according to its quorum.

群体感应是细菌根据细胞密度变化进行基因表达调控的一种生理行为。

But let's say you are instead using an anti-quorum-sensing drug designed to inhibit bacterial communication, she continues, "and I'm a bacterium with a mutation that makes me immune to the blocker."

但是我们要承认使用反群体敏感态药物作替代将会抑制细菌通讯，她继续说道，“就好像说我是一个变异了的细菌，从而对一些阻断剂有了免疫作用。”

Blocking the quorum sensing system would be equivalent to using white noise to interfere with spoken communication, Blackwell adds.

干扰群体感应系统就相当于用白噪音去阻扰口头通讯。

However, bacteria fix the gas only when their population is high enough to trigger the quorum-sensing machinery.

然而，只有在细菌（根瘤菌）达到一定数量时引发群体感应机制才能进行固氮。

He thinks it will be a few years yet before quorum sensing inhibitors come into their own.

他认为几年之后，群体感应抑制剂就会出现发挥他们的效用。

Theoretically, blocking quorum sensing would prevent the bacteria from turning pathogenic and producing the toxins that are an immediate cause of disease in bacterial infections.

理论上，对群体感应系统进行干扰可以阻止生成作为细菌感染的直接病因的病原体及毒素。
