Coexistence of two divergent TprA/PhrA cell-cell communication systems in <i>Streptococcus mitis</i> coordinate bacteriocin production, competence, oxidative stress responses, and interspecies competition with <i>S. pneumoniae</i>

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Cell-cell communication (CCC) systems are key regulators of bacterial behaviors and adaptation. The human upper respiratory tract is co-colonized by commensal and pathogenic streptococci, but how CCC systems mediate their interactions remains unclear. Here, we investigated the TprA/PhrA quorum-sensing system, composed of the transcription factor TprA and its cognate signaling peptide PhrA, acros...
