Genetic and functional characterization of the natural transformation system in <i>Streptococcus constellatus</i>

2026-03-05

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Streptococcus constellatus is an opportunistic pathogen frequently associated with abscess formation in various body sites. While the species has been shown to acquire exogenous DNA through natural transformation, functional analyses of its underlying mechanisms and optimized genetic editing protocols remain limited. Thus, our aim was to characterize the natural transformation system in S. cons...
