Title
Identification of an AfsA homologue (BarX) from Streptomyces virginiae as a pleiotropic regulator controlling autoregulator biosynthesis, virginiamycin biosynthesis and virginiamycin M1 resistance.
barS1, a gene for biosynthesis of a gamma-butyrolactone autoregulator, a microbial signaling molecule eliciting antibiotic production in Streptomyces species.
