This study identifies the MutRS quorum sensing system as a regulator of lantibiotic mutacin production in Streptococcus mutans and shows its role in inter- and intrastrain crosstalk.

This paper identifies Streptococcin B as a bacteriocin produced during the early competence cascade in S. pneumoniae, which enhances intraspecies competition by targeting non-competent and ComE-deleted strains.

This paper introduces a reinforcement learning framework, OligoRL, for solving complex oligonucleotide design problems and demonstrates its application to three specific design tasks.
