Mobility of the native Bacillus subtilis conjugative plasmid pLS20 is regulated by intercellular signaling.
Horizontal gene transfer mediated by plasmid conjugation plays a significant role in the evolution of bacterial species, as well as in the dissemination of antibiotic resistance and pathogenicity determinants. Characterization of their regulation is important for gaining insights into these features...
