Transcription of the Bacillus subtilis gerK operon, which encodes a spore germinant receptor, and comparison with that of operons encoding other germinant receptors.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Jun 2006

Igarashi Takao, Setlow Peter

Abstract excerpt

The gerA, gerB, and gerK operons, which encode germinant receptors in spores of Bacillus subtilis, were transcribed only in sporulation, and their mRNA levels peaked initially approximately 3 h before the initiation of accumulation of the spore's dipicolinic acid. After a rapid fall, levels of th...
