Targeting the Impossible: A Review of New Strategies against Endospores
Antibiotics, 2023 Endospore-forming bacteria are ubiquitous, and their endospores can be present in food, in domestic animals, and on contaminated surfaces. Many spore-forming bacteria have been used in biotechnological applications, while others are human pathogens ...

No Endospore Formation Confirmed in Members of the Phylum Proteobacteria
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2020 Bacterial endospore formation is an important process that allows the formation of dormant life forms called spores. Organisms able to sporulate can survive harsh environmental conditions for hundreds of years.

alpha-helix E of Spo0A is required for sigma(A)- but not for sigma(H)-dependent promoter activation in Bacillus subtilis [PDF]
, 2004 At the onset of endospore formation in Bacillus subtilis, the DNA binding protein Spo0A activates transcription from two types of promoters. The first type includes the spoIIG and spoIIE promoters, which are used by sigma(A)-RNA polymerase, whereas the ...

Two methods for isolation of endophytic and edaphic Bacillus spp. from sugarcane fields
Arquivos do Instituto Biológico, 2018 : Bacillus has been widely studied and used for the control of pests and diseases. The adapted protocol proposed by POLANCZYK (2004) proved to be more efficient than the one by the World Health Organization (WHO, 1985) to isolate edaphic strains of ...
