QS inhibitor activity of selected compounds in P. aeruginosa (PAO1) reporters.
| Compound | IC50 lasB-GFP | IC50 rhlA-GFP | IC50 pqsA-GFP | IC50 PAO1-GFP |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Indole-3-acetic acid | Not active | Not active | >3125 μM | Not active |
| 6-methyl salicylic acid | Not active | Not active | 2809 μM | Not active |
| Rubrofusarin | Not active | >62,5 μM | 17 μM | Not active |
| Citrinin | >2000 μM | Not active | 1062 μM | Not active |
| Desmethyl Gregatin A | 509 μM | Not active | 130 μM | Not active |
| Gregatin A | 228 μM | 516 μM | 203 μM | Not active |
| Gregatin D | 282 μM | 398 μM | 294 μM | Not active |
| Cyclogregatin | >500 μM | Not active | >500 μM | Not active |
IC50 values of the different reporters were determined. Compounds were scored as “non-active” when it was not possible to plot a nonlinear regression curve because of lack of inhibitory activity. In case there was inhibitory activity, but 50% inhibition was not reached, the IC50 value was estimated to be higher than the highest concentrations tested. Higher concentrations could not be tested due to excessively high DMSO concentrations or precipitation of the compound.
