Identification of a Membrane-Bound Transcriptional Regulator That Links Chitin and Natural Competence in <named-content content-type="genus-species">Vibrio cholerae</named-content>
ABSTRACT Vibrio cholerae is naturally competent when grown on chitin. It is known that expression of the major regulator of competence, TfoX, is controlled by chitin; however, the molecular mechanisms underlying this requirement for chitin have remained unclear. In the present study, we identify and...
