The gerB region of the Bacillus subtilis 168 chromosome encodes a homologue of the gerA spore germination operon.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 Mar 1994

Corfe B M, Sammons R L, Smith D A, Mauël C

Abstract excerpt

Spores of gerB spore germination mutants of Bacillus subtilis 168 are defective in response to the germinative mixture of L-asparagine, glucose, fructose and potassium ions (AGFK), but are normal in the L-alanine (ALA) triggered germination response. A lambda clone of 15 kbp carrying the gerB region has been identified. Sequencing of the gerB region of the clone revealed a cluster of three ORFs encoding putative...
