Abstract excerpt
Cells respond to stress conditions by synthesizing general or specific stress proteins. The Ctc protein of Bacillus subtilis belongs to the general stress proteins. The synthesis of Ctc is controlled by an alternative sigma factor of RNA polymerase, sigmaB. Sequence analyses revealed that Ctc is composed of two domains, an N-terminal domain similar to the ribosomal protein L25 of Escherichia coli, and a...
