This commentary highlights chitinolytic activity regulation by quorum sensing and carbon catabolite repression in Chromobacterium.
Chitinolytic activity is a well-documented phenotype controlled by quorum sensing (QS) in Chromobacterium strains but also regulated by carbon catabolite repression mechanisms. This work comprehensively reviews scientific literature on chitinolytic activity, reinforcing the need to use a minimal culture medium supplemented with chitin for assays testing chitinolytic activity modulated by QS in Chromobacterium strains.
