Our results suggest that NTD/kanosamine has the potential to modulate the carbon-energy metabolism through an autoinduction mechanism.ImportanceAutoinducers enable bacteria to sense cell density and to coordinate collective behavior. NTD/kanosamine is an autoinducer produced by B. subtilis and several close relatives, although its physiological function remains unknown. The most important finding of this study was the significance of de novo NTD/kanosamine biosynthesis in the modulation of the central carbon metabolism in B. subtili
