The regulation of genetic competence in Bacillus subtilis.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Jan 1991

Dubnau D

Abstract excerpt

Genetic competence develops as a global response of Bacillus subtilis to the onset of stationary phase, in glucose-minimal salts-based media. The onset of competence is accompanied by the expression of several late gene products that are required for the binding, processing and uptake of transforming DNA. A number of regulatory genes have been identified that are needed for the appropriate synthesis of the late...
