Abstract excerpt
Most members of the phylum Firmicutes harbour a two-component system (TCS), LiaSR, which is involved in the response to cell envelope stress elicited most notably by inhibitors of the lipid II cycle. In all LiaSR systems studied in detail, LiaSR-mediated signal transduction has been shown to be negatively controlled by a membrane protein, LiaF, encoded upstream of liaSR. In this study we have analysed the LiaSR...
