Abstract excerpt
It is well known that the ykvU-ykvV operon is under the regulation of the sigma(E)-associated RNA polymerase (Esigma(E)). In our study, we observed that ykvV is transcribed together with the upstream ykvU gene by Esigma(E) in the mother cell and monocistronically under Esigma(G) control in the forespore. Interestingly, alternatively expressed ykvV in either the forespore or the mother cell increased the...
