Competence in <named-content content-type="genus-species">Streptococcus pneumoniae</named-content> Is Regulated by the Rate of Ribosomal Decoding Errors
ABSTRACT Competence for genetic transformation in Streptococcus pneumoniae develops in response to accumulation of a secreted peptide pheromone and was one of the initial examples of bacterial quorum sensing. Activation of this signaling system induces not only expression of the proteins required fo...
