Abstract excerpt
Three mutant forms of the protease (GPR) that initiates degradation of small, acid-soluble spore proteins (SASP) during germination of spores of Bacillus species have been generated. In one variant (GPR delta), the putative pro sequence removed in conversion of the GPR zymogen (termed P46) to the...
