Full name: 3-oxohexanoyl-homoserine lactone
Source organism: V. fischeri
Synthase: LuxI
Action: Binds to the LuxR gene product of the Lux operon. The resulting complex can bind to the lux box and modulate transcription from the lux promoters.
Source: [http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/search/ProductDetail/SIGMA/K3007 Sigma Aldrich (#K3007)]
Notes: Currently one of the best studied small signaling molecules of the acyl-homoserine lactone family.
