The major role of Spo0A in genetic competence is to downregulate abrB, an essential competence gene.

J Hahn1, M Roggiani, D Dubnau.   

Abstract

We show that the major role for Spo0A in the development of genetic competence is to downregulate expression of abrB. AbrB is both a negative regulator and a positive regulator of competence. The negative effects are exerted at multiple points in competence regulation. A regulatory mechanism that is independent of mecA and abrB operates on comK expression.
