Abstract excerpt
whiH is one of several known loci specifically needed for the orderly multiple sporulation septation of aerial hyphae of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) and for the expression of at least some late sporulation genes. DNA complementing whiH mutants was located immediately upstream on hrdB, which encodes the principal sigma factor of S. coelicolor. Sequencing revealed a gene whose disruption gave rise to a typical...
