Characterization and cloning of the gerC locus of Bacillus subtilis 168.

Journal of general microbiology - 1 Jul 1990

Yazdi M A, Moir A

Abstract excerpt

A Bacillus subtilis gerC spore germination mutant demonstrating a temperature-sensitive response to L-alanine as germinant has been characterized in detail. The gerC58 mutation is 50% cotransformed with aroB in the gene order gerC-aroB-trpC. The mutation is responsible for a severe growth defect which is manifest at all growth temperatures and is most extreme on rich media. A second, unlinked, mutation in the...
