N-Decanoyl cyclopentylamide
N-Decanoyl cyclopentylamide (C10-CPA) is a potent inhibitor of quorum sensing in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. N-Decanoyl cyclopentylamide interferes with expression of Pseudomonas aeruginosa virulence factors regulated by the las and rhl quorum-sensing systems. N-Decanoyl cyclopentylamide inhibits production of elastase, pyocyanin, and rhamnolipid and biofilm formation.

Biological Activity
N-Decanoyl cyclopentylamide (C10-CPA) inhibits quorum sensing in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and its concentrations required for half-maximal inhibition for lasB-lacZ and rhlA-lacZ expression are 80 μM and 90 μM, respectively[1].
N-Decanoyl cyclopentylamide also inhibits production of virulence factors, including elastase, pyocyanin, and rhamnolipid, and biofilm formation without affecting growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1[1].
N-Decanoyl cyclopentylamide interferes with the las and rhl quorum-sensing systems via inhibiting interaction between their response regulators (LasR and RhlR) and autoinducers[1].
