Abstract excerpt
WalRK is an essential two-component signal transduction system that plays a central role in coordinating cell wall synthesis and cell growth in Bacillus subtilis. However, the physiological role of WalRK and its essentiality for growth have not been elucidated. We investigated the behaviour of WalRK during heat stress and its essentiality for cell proliferation. We determined that the inactivation of the walHI...
