We cultured HUVEC cells from a single batch to various passages (P6, P14, P22) and tested them for cord formation competence.
Hence, there was the suggestion, that below an auxin threshold (≤ 50 NAA), hypocotyls from Spcdc25 plants explanted to culture media have increased competence for root formation.
In Streptococcus mutans, the system is involved in bacteriocin production, competence regulation, biofilm formation, and tolerance to environmental stresses [ 26- 30].
The vicKR TCS plays a major role in the biofilm formation, competence development, oxidative stress tolerance, acid tolerance, autolysin production, glucan and fructan metabolism of S. mutans[ 27, 72– 72].
It has been suggested that a trigger factor homologue in Streptococcus mutans is a key regulator of stress tolerance, genetic competence and biofilm formation, all of which are critical virulence properties of this bacterium.
At present, HBV DNA transfection provides a reliable method to address replication-competence and physical formation of complete virus particles.
It has been argued that medical education tends to focus more on learning about the physician's doings rather than being and a broader focus on the relationship between the development of competences and the formation of a professional identity has been called for.
In S. pneumoniae, luxS is a virulent gene and a central regulator of competence, fratricide, and biofilm formation, and a luxS mutant strain displays a significant decrease in pneumococcal biofilm formation [ 13, 14, 42].
It also describes the formation of competence of future electro engineers.
Biofilm formation and competence pathways are linked in some bacteria through quorum sensing, so we hypothesize that MUC5B may inhibit natural transformation of S. mutans.
