A positive feedback loop mediated by Sigma X enhances expression of the streptococcal regulator ComR
Abstract 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 by pheromones that they produce, secrete and sense under conditions influenced by the environment. I...
