Isolation and characterization of a sporulation initiation mutation in the Bacillus subtilis secA gene.

abstract：:The csgA gene produces an intercellular signal during fruiting body formation of the myxobacterium Myxococcus xanthus. Sporulating pseudorevertants were isolated to allow us to understand the mechanism by which CsgA is perceived by cells and used to regulate developmental gene expression. Two strains, LS559 and LS560,...
