Abstract excerpt
Cell motility increases the fitness of bacterial cells. Previous research focused on the transcriptional regulator CdsR, which represses cellular autolysis and promotes spore formation in Bacillus thuringiensis. However, the targets of CdsR are mostly unknown. Here, we reported a new function of CdsR in regulating cell motility. Mutation of cdsR results in increase of cell mobility, and a number of related genes...
