Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: SpoIIQ is an essential component of a channel connecting the developing forespore to the adjacent mother cell during Bacillus subtilis sporulation. This channel is generally required for late gene expression in the forespore, including that directed by the late-acting sigma factor σ(G) Here, we present evidence that SpoIIQ also participates in a previously unknown gene regulatory circuit that...
