Genomic insights into the convergence and pathogenicity factors of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli species.

abstract：:Bacillus subtilis strains containing deletions in the genes coding for one or two of the major small, acid-soluble spore proteins (SASP; termed SASP-alpha and SASP-beta) were constructed. These mutants sporulated normally, but the spores lacked either SASP-alpha, SASP-beta, or both proteins. The level of minor SASP di...
