A mutational analysis of the Bacillus subtilis competence helicase ComFA
Genetic competence is a developmental process in bacteria that allows natural transformation. Competent Gram positive bacteria such as Bacillus subtilis carry a cytosolic helicase which is required for efficient transformation. In this work ComFA is confirmed as a DEAD-box helicase. I also describ...
