Uptake signal sequence (USS) are short DNA sequences preferentially taken up by competent bacteria belonging to the Pasteurellacea family (e.g., Haemophilus influenzae). Similar sequences, called DNA uptake sequence (DUS), are found in species belonging to the Neisseriaceae family (including Neisseria meningitidis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae).
