High-resolution profiles of the Streptococcus mitis CSP signaling pathway reveal core and strain-specific regulated genes

Abstract Background In streptococci of the mitis group, competence for natural transformation is a transient physiological state triggered by competence stimulating peptides (CSPs). Although low transformation yields and the absence of a widespread functional competence system have been reported for...
