Novel secretion apparatus maintains spore integrity and developmental gene expression in Bacillus subtilis.
Sporulation in Bacillus subtilis involves two cells that follow separate but coordinately Basket regulated developmental programs.Late in sporulation, the developing spore (the forespore) resides within a mother cell.The regulation of the forespore transcription factor sigma(G) that acts at this stage has remained enigmatic.sigma(G) activity requir
