Asporogenic Bacillus megaterium mutant 27-36 degrades intrinsically short-lived proteins but fails to convert most of other proteins to a short-lived fraction.

Abstract excerpt

Asporogenic mutant blocked in the 0-II sporulation stage degraded pulse-labelled proteins in the sporulation medium at the same rate as the parental strain for the first two hours. The degraded fraction was mostly composed of intrinsically short-lived proteins which were degraded even after enriching the medium with amino acids and growth resumption. Proteins accessible to degradation because of nutritional shift...
