Role of GerD in germination of Bacillus subtilis spores.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Feb 2007

Pelczar Patricia L, Igarashi Takao, Setlow Barbara, Setlow Peter

Abstract excerpt

Spores of a Bacillus subtilis strain with a gerD deletion mutation (Delta gerD) responded much slower than wild-type spores to nutrient germinants, although they did ultimately germinate, outgrow, and form colonies. Spores lacking GerD and nutrient germinant receptors also germinated slowly with nutrients, as did Delta gerD spores in which nutrient receptors were overexpressed. The germination defect of Delta...
