To date, a very limited number of peptides reported as quorum sensing inhibitors. Herein, we report the synthesis and evaluation of a series of β-turn mimetic-based peptides as potent quorum sensing inhibitors and antibiofilm formation. In this series, peptides P1, P4, and P5 showed very promising anti-quorum sensing activity on lasB-gfp reporter strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa without affecting bacterial growth. Under our condition, these compounds also showed good anti-violacein production of Chromobacterium violaceum. In terms of antibiofilm formation, except P5, two β-turn mimetic-based peptides P1 and P4 showed maximum inhibition of 80% total biomass of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. T... |
