The agr radiation: an early event in the evolution of staphylococci.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Aug 2005

Abstract excerpt

Agr is a global regulatory system in the staphylococci, operating by a classical two-component signaling module and controlling the expression of most of the genes encoding extracellular virulence factors. As it is autoinduced by a peptide, encoded within the locus, that is the ligand for the signal receptor, it is a sensor of population density or a quorum sensor and is the only known quorum-sensing system in...
