Abstract excerpt
Bacillus subtilis cells cannot sporulate in the presence of catabolites such as glucose. During the analysis of Tn10-generated mutants, we found that deletion of the C-terminal region of the tnrA gene, which encodes a global regulator that positively regulates a number of genes in response to nitrogen limitation, results in a catabolite-resistant sporulation phenotype. Analyses of nrg-lacZ and nasB-lacZ, which...
