competence for DNA transformation would accelerate its general use as a platform for a variety of applications. Natural transformation in this species requires the activation of the master regulator ComX ...
Summary Competence for natural genetic transformation in Streptococcus pneumoniae is controlled by the extracellular concentration of the competence ‐stimulating peptide (CSP), an exported peptide ...
conditions. The recent discovery of a new mechanism regulating natural transformation in Streptococcus thermophilus suggested that this property might be more widespread among streptococci than previously ...
Natural transformation is used by bacteria to take up DNA from their surroundings and incorporate it into their genomes. Streptococci do so during a transient period of competence , triggered ...
believed that S. sobrinus lacks the natural competence pathways that are used by other streptococci to regulate growth, virulence, and quorum sensing. The lack of natural competence has also prevented ...
perspectives on our understanding of competence regulation and its role in the bacterial life cycle. Competence for natural transformation is a widespread developmental process of streptococci . By allowing ...
antibacterial targets and reduce the emergence of drug-resistant bacteria. Competence is a prerequisite of natural transformation in Streptococcus pneumoniae, in which comCDE operon is the core regulator ...
In many streptococci , competence for natural DNA transformation is regulated by the Rgg‐type regulator ComR and the pheromone ComS, which is sensed intracellularly. We compared the ComRS systems ...
, including Lactococcus lactis, revealed the presence of homologues of competence genes in bacteria, which were not previously identified as naturally transformable . We investigated the conservation among ...
Background: In streptococci of the mitis group, competence for natural transformation is a transient physiological state triggered by competence stimulating peptides (CSPs). Although low ...
