Abstract excerpt

The initiation of sporulation in Bacillus subtilis depends on seven genes of the spo0 class. One of these, spo0F, codes for a protein of 14,000 daltons. We studied the regulation of spo0F by using spo0F-lacZ translational fusions and also measured Spo0F protein levels by immunoassays. spo0F-lacZ...
