A Mutation in the Bacillus subtilis rsbU Gene That Limits RNA Synthesis during Sporulation.

Journal of bacteriology - 15 Jul 2017

Abstract excerpt

Mutants of Bacillis subtilis that are temperature sensitive for RNA synthesis during sporulation were isolated after selection with a 32P suicide agent. Whole-genome sequencing revealed that two of the mutants carried an identical lesion in the rsbU gene, which encodes a phosphatase that indirectly activates SigB, the stress-responsive RNA polymerase sigma factor. The mutation appeared to cause RsbU to be...
