Abstract excerpt

Mutations affecting quantitatively the production of the sporulation-associated extracellular alkaline protease were isolated and characterized. They fall into at least five genes, three of which, ScoA, B and C, were mapped in the argC-metC region. The pleiotropic effects of these mutations conce...
