Localization of the GerD spore germination protein in the Bacillus subtilis spore.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 Apr 2009

Mongkolthanaruk Wiyada, Robinson Carl, Moir Anne

Abstract excerpt

The GerD protein of Bacillus subtilis is required for efficient spore germination in l-alanine, and for germination in the alternative germinant combination of amino acids plus sugars. Only germination via nutrient receptors is affected in the mutant. The GerD protein is predicted to be a lipoprotein that is produced in the forespore compartment of the sporulating cell. Using antibody raised against the GerD...
