Is SpxA2 involved in hydrogen peroxide production and competence development in Streptococcus sanguinis?

CONCLUSION: Although the intricate relationship between SpxA2, pox-mediated H2O2 production and competence development was clarified in S. sanguinis, it would be worthwhile to explore further whether H2O2 is involved in competence development through oxidizing the SpxA2 CXXC motif.
