Fever-like temperature bursts promote competence development via an HtrA-dependent pathway in Streptococcus pneumoniae

2023-04-15

Abstract excerpt

Streptococcus pneumoniae (the pneumococcus) is well known for its ability to develop competence for natural DNA transformation. Competence development is regulated by an autocatalytic loop driven by variations in the basal level of transcription of the comCDE and comAB operons. These genes are part of the early gene regulon that controls expression of the late competence genes known to encode the apparatus of tr...
