Characterization of Clostridium perfringens spores that lack SpoVA proteins and dipicolinic acid.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Jul 2008

Paredes-Sabja Daniel, Setlow Barbara, Setlow Peter, Sarker Mahfuzur R

Abstract excerpt

Spores of Clostridium perfringens possess high heat resistance, and when these spores germinate and return to active growth, they can cause gastrointestinal disease. Work with Bacillus subtilis has shown that the spore's dipicolinic acid (DPA) level can markedly influence both spore germination and resistance and that the proteins encoded by the spoVA operon are essential for DPA uptake by the developing spore...
