Loss of the Rhodobacter capsulatus Serine Acetyl Transferase Gene, cysE1, Impairs Gene Transfer by Gene Transfer Agents and Biofilm Phenotypes

Biofilms are widespread in the environment, where they allow bacterial species to survive adverse conditions. Cells in biofilms are densely packed, and this proximity is likely to increase the frequency of horizontal gene transfer. Gene transfer agents (GTAs) are domesticated viruses with the potent...
