Spo0A∼P Imposes a Temporal Gate for the Bimodal Expression of Competence in Bacillus subtilis

ComK transcriptionally controls competence for the uptake of transforming DNA in Bacillus subtilis. Only 10%–20% of the cells in a clonal population are randomly selected for competence. Because ComK activates its own promoter, cells exceeding a threshold amount of ComK trigger a positive feedback l...
