Abstract excerpt
A knock-out mutant of the dinR gene that encodes the SOS regulon repressor in Bacillus subtilis was constructed. The yneA, yneB and ynzC genes transcribed divergently from the dinR gene were strongly induced in mutant cells. Northern hybridization analyses revealed that these genes collectively form an operon and belong to the SOS regulon. The simultaneous deletion of dinR and yneA suppressed the filamentous...
