Abstract excerpt
SinR, a 111-amino-acid DNA-binding protein, is a pleiotropic regulator of several late growth processes in Bacillus subtilis. It acts as a developmental switch, positively regulating genes for competence and motility and repressing aprE and stage II sporulation genes. It is encoded by the second gene in a two gene operon, but previous results have also indicated that these two genes are differently regulated. We...
