Abstract excerpt
RelA is a global regulator for stationary phase development in the model bacterium Bacillus subtilis. The relA gene forms a bicistronic operon with the downstream dtd gene. In this study, we evaluated the significance of RelA and DTD proteins in spore formation and toxin production by an important gastrointestinal pathogen Clostridium perfringens. Our β-glucuronidase assay showed that in C. perfringens strain...
