Structural and Genomic Evolution of RRNPPA Systems and Their Pheromone Signaling

Structural and Genomic Evolution of RRNPPA Systems and Their Pheromone Signaling

ABSTRACT In Firmicutes, important processes such as competence development, sporulation, virulence, and biofilm formation are regulated by cytoplasmic quorum sensing (QS) receptors of the RRNPPA family using peptide-based communication. Although these systems regulate important processes in a variet...
