Some more topics I should write about (in no particular order):

• The Perl model of USS evolution.
• comE1 knockout phenotype.
• Role of pilB in DNA uptake (lack of pilT)
• How to test whether Sxy kisses CRP.
• Recombineering.
• Back to Bayes-ics.
• Laser tweezers and DNA uptake.
• Sub-inhibitory antibiotic effects.
• The search for an Ery-resistant mutant.
• Testing the H. influenzae genome in E. coli.
• Competence in natural populations.
• How purine nucleotides might affect competence induction.
• Competence and maybe hypercompetence in A. pleuropneumoniae.
• Growth and DNA uptake in mucus.
• How might DNA get across the outer membrane.
• Whether USSs help DNA to bend.
• How mutant MurE might turn on sxy.
• The reason(s?) bacteria take up DNA.
