C. Ptet_RhlR (6A1)　Prhl(LR)-GFP (3K3)
D. Ptet_RhlR (6A1)　Prhl(RL)-GFP (3K3)
E. Ptet_RhlR (6A1)　 Placuv5-GFP (3K3) …positive control
F. Ptet_RhlR (6A1)　promoter less-GFP(3K3) …negative control

2. Assay protocol
1.Prepare 2 overnight cultures for each sample A~F in 3 mL LB medium, containing ampicillin (50 microg / mL) and kanamycin (30 microg / mL) at 37°C for 12 h.
2.Dilute the overnight cultures to 1 / 100 in fresh LB medium (3 mL) containing ampicillin (50 microg / mL) and kanamycin (30 microg / mL) (→fresh culture).
3.Incubate the fresh cultures in 37°C until the OD590 reaches 0.3.
4.Add 30 microL of 500 microM C4HSL or DMSO as listed below:
　　　A-5 microM: A + C4HSL
　　　A-0 microM: A + DMSO
　　　B-5 microM: B + C4HSL
　　　B-0 microM: B + DMSO
　　　C-5 microM: C + C4HSL
　　　C-0 microM: C + DMSO
　　　D-5 microM: D + C4HSL
　　　D-0 microM: D + DMSO
　　　E-5 microM: E + C4HSL
　　　E-0 microM: E + DMSO
　　　F-5 microM: F + C4HSL
　　　F-0 microM: F + DMSO
5.Incubate the samples at 37°C for 4 h.
6.Start preparing the flow cytometer 1 h before the end of incubation.
7.Take 200 microL of the sample, and centrifuge at 9000x g, 1 min., 4°C.
8.Remove the supernatant by using P1000 pipette.
9.Add 1 mL of filtered PBS (phosphate-buffered saline) and suspend.
10.Dispense all of each suspension into a disposable tube through a cell strainer.
11.Measure fluorescence intensity with a flow cytometer (We used BD FACSCaliburTM Flow Cytometer of Becton, Dickenson and Company).
