Functional characterization of a three-component regulatory system involved in quorum sensing-based regulation of peptide antibiotic production in <it>Carnobacterium maltaromaticum</it>

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Quorum sensing is a form of cell-to-cell communication that allows bacteria to control a wide range of physiological processes in a population density-dependent manner. Production of peptide antibiotics is one of the processes regula...
