Abstract excerpt
Individually, the ribosomal proteins L1, L23, L36, and S6 are not essential for cell proliferation of Bacillus subtilis, but the absence of any one of these ribosomal proteins causes a defect in the formation of the 70S ribosomes and a reduced growth rate. In mutant strains individually lacking these ribosomal proteins, the cellular Mg2+ content was significantly reduced. The deletion of YhdP, an exporter of...
