The complete genome sequence of Trueperella pyogenes UFV1 reveals a processing system involved in the quorumsensing signal response [PDF]
We present here the complete genome sequence of Trueperella pyogenes UFV1. The 2.3-Mbp genome contains an extremely interesting AI-2 transporter and processing system related to the quorum-sensing signal response.
