Signal transduction and sporulation in Bacillus subtilis: heterologous phosphorylation of Spo0A, a sporulation initiation gene product.
Journal of biochemistry - 1 Sept 1993
Asayama M, Kobayashi Y
Abstract excerpt
Spo0A is both a positive and a negative transcriptional regulator which plays a very important role in sporulation initiation in Bacillus subtilis. Its N-terminal amino acid sequence is homologous to that of regulator proteins of the two-component regulatory systems involved in signal transduction in bacteria. Phosphorylation of Spo0A through phosphorelay has been reported by Burbulys et al. (1991). In this...
