Mechanism underlying the DNA-binding preferences of the Vibrio cholerae and vibriophage VP882 VqmA quorum-sensing receptors.

Quorum sensing is a chemical communication process that bacteria use to coordinate group behaviors. In the global pathogen Vibrio cholerae, one quorum-sensing receptor and transcription factor, called VqmA (VqmAVc), activates expression of the vqmR gene encoding the small regulatory RNA VqmR, which...
