A genome-wide CRISPRi screen reveals a StkP-mediated connection between cell-wall integrity and competence in <i>Streptococcus salivarius</i>
2022-06-29
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Competence is one of the most efficient bacterial evolutionary and adaptative strategies by synchronizing production of antibacterial compounds and integration of DNA released by dead cells. In most streptococci, this tactic is orchestrated by the ComRS system, a pheromone communication device providing a sharp time window of activation in which only part of the population is responsive.
