Regulation of Clostridium difficile Spore Formation by the SpoIIQ and SpoIIIA Proteins.

PLoS genetics - 1 Oct 2015

Fimlaid Kelly A, Jensen Owen, Donnelly M Lauren, Siegrist M Sloan, Shen Aimee

Abstract excerpt

Sporulation is an ancient developmental process that involves the formation of a highly resistant endospore within a larger mother cell. In the model organism Bacillus subtilis, sporulation-specific sigma factors activate compartment-specific transcriptional programs that drive spore morphogenesis. σG activity in the forespore depends on the formation of a secretion complex, known as the "feeding tube," that...
