Abstract excerpt
The Bacillus subtilis RNA polymerase sigma factor sigma G is a cell-type-specific regulatory protein that governs the transcription of genes that are expressed at an intermediate to late stage of sporulation in the forespore compartment of the sporangium. Here we report the identification of a mu...
