  regulatory mechanism

  • [protein|7832489F11F606BCF637EC23BAAB41AD10237EBB|ComA]: activation, in [regulon|7832489F11F606BCF637EC23BAAB41AD10237EBB|ComA regulon]

  regulation

  • expressed at high cell density ([protein|7832489F11F606BCF637EC23BAAB41AD10237EBB|ComA]) [Pubmed|16091051]

  additional information

  • [protein|search|translation] is likely to require [protein|3054CD45713BBD69C2A528DE24AF6AF37175FD9D|Efp] due to the presence of several consecutive proline residues [PubMed|23239624,23239623]
