abstract：:In the dental caries pathogen Streptococcus mutans, an MarR-like transcriptional regulator (RcrR), two ABC efflux pumps (RcrPQ) and two effector peptides encoded in the rcrRPQ operon provide molecular connections between stress tolerance, (p)ppGpp metabolism and genetic competence. Here, we examined the role of RcrRPQ...
