AI-2-dependent gene regulation in <it>Staphylococcus epidermidis</it>
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Autoinducer 2 (AI-2), a widespread by-product of the LuxS-catalyzed S-ribosylhomocysteine cleavage reaction in the activated methyl cycle, has been suggested to serve as an intra- and interspecies signaling molecule, but in many bact...
