Competence-Associated Peptide BriC Alters Fatty Acid Biosynthesis in Streptococcus pneumoniae

Membrane lipid homeostasis is required for bacteria to survive in a spectrum of host environments. This homeostasis is achieved by regulation of fatty acid chain length and of the ratio of unsaturated to saturated fatty acids. In the pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae, fatty acid biosynthesis is carr...
