Notes: The sender cell synthesizes a messaging molecule (inducer) that stimulates its receptor synthesized in the receiver cells. This complex triggers inhibition (or activation) of a target gene in a cell density-dependent manner.
Abbreviations: Ind, inducer; Pr, promotor; Precept, receptor’s promoter.
