Abstract excerpt
Bacillus subtilis has multiple stress response systems whose integrated action promotes growth and survival under unfavorable conditions. Here we address the function and transcriptional organization of a five-gene cluster containing ssrA, previously known to be important for growth at high temperature because of the role of its tmRNA product in rescuing stalled ribosomes. Reverse transcription-PCR experiments...
