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 reg...
