Structural and genetic analysis of X-ray scattering by spores of Bacillus subtilis.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Dormant spores of Bacillus subtilis exhibit two prominent X-ray scattering peaks. These peaks persisted in spores lacking most alpha/beta-type small, acid-soluble protein or the CotE protein responsible for assembly of much spore coat protein, but they were absent from spores of strains lacking the late sporulation-specific transcription factor GerE.

HE developmental processes in bacteriophage T4 have been studied extenTsively with temperature-sensitive mutants and amber mutants (EDGAR, DENHARDT and EPSTEIN 1964; EDGAR and LIELAUSIS 1964). In Bacillus subtilis, the sporulation process has been studied with asporogenous mutants ( RYTER, SCHAEFFER and IONESCO 1966; TAKAHASHI 1965). We examined the developmental processes involved in the trans...
