Plasmid-amplified comS enhances genetic competence and suppresses sinR in Bacillus subtilis.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Sept 1996

Liu L, Nakano M M, Lee O H, Zuber P

Abstract excerpt

The establishment of genetic competence in Bacillus subtilis is controlled by a vast signal transduction network involving the products of genes that function in several postexponential-phase processes. Two of these proteins, SinR and DegU, serve as molecular switches that influence a cell's decision to undergo either sporulation or genetic competence development. In order to determine the roles of SinR and DegU...
