CRP Interacts Specifically With Sxy to Activate Transcription in Escherichia coli

Horizontal gene transfer through natural competence is an important driving force of bacterial evolution and antibiotic resistance development. In several Gram-negative pathogens natural competence is regulated by the concerted action of cAMP receptor protein (CRP) and the transcriptional co-regulat...
