Timing and genetic regulation of commitment to sporulation in Bacillus subtilis.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 Dec 1996

Parker G F, Daniel R A, Errington J

Abstract excerpt

Sporulation in Bacillus subtilis is a simple developmental system involving the differentiation of two cell types called the prespore and the mother cell. The process is induced by nutrient deprivation and culminates with the formation of a mature spore, which is released by lysis of the mother cell. We have studied commitment to sporulation with several different assays. The results indicate that commitment...
