Abstract excerpt
Escherichia coli is not considered naturally competent, yet it has homologues of the genes that most competent bacteria use for DNA uptake and processing. In Haemophilus influenzae and Vibrio cholerae, these genes are regulated by the Sxy and cyclic AMP receptor (CRP) proteins. We used microarrays to find out whether similar regulation occurs in E. coli. Expression of sxy strongly induced 63 transcriptional...
