The opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa possesses two N-acyl-homoserine lactone quorum-sensing systems that regulate large, overlapping sets of genes. Recent global transcriptome and proteome analyses provided a wealth of information about the identity of the regulated genes, N-acyl-homoserine lactone signal specificity, timing of induction, and environmental effects on gene expression. Quorum-sensing gene expression in P. aeruginosa is also embedded in a highly interconnected network of other regulatory systems with a high potential for integrating and responding to multiple environmental signals. Such epigenetic complexity may constitute the basis for the exceptional adaptability of P. aeruginosa to diverse environments.
