Mechanistic divergence between SOS response activation and antibiotic-induced plasmid conjugation in Escherichia coli
ABSTRACT The SOS response is a critical DNA damage repair mechanism in bacteria, designed to counteract genotoxic stress and ensure survival. This system can be activated by different classes of antimicrobial agents, each inducing the SOS response through different mechanisms. Moreover, it has been...
