Orthologues of Bacillus subtilis Spore Crust Proteins Have a Structural Role in the Bacillus megaterium QM B1551 Spore Exosporium. [PDF]
, 2018 The exosporium of Bacillus megaterium QM B1551 spores is morphologically distinct from exosporia observed for the spores of many other species. Previous work has demonstrated that unidentified genes carried on one of the large indigenous plasmids are ...

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2016 Clostridium difficile is the causative agent of the most frequently reported nosocomial diarrhea worldwide. The high incidence of recurrent infection is the main clinical challenge of C. difficile infections (CDI). Formation of C. difficile spores of the

Synthesis of the Exosporium During Sporulation of Bacillus cereus [PDF]
Microbiology, 1984 Summary: Techniques of antigenic analysis were used to examine the synthesis of the exosporium during sporulation of Bacillus cereus. An antiserum to a soluble extract of exosporium from mature spores was used to analyse extracts of cells from various stages of the Bacillus life cycle by the technique of one-dimensional immunoelectrophoresis ...

mSphere, 2017 Clostridium sordellii is an often-lethal bacterium causing human and animal disease. Crucial to the infectious cycle of C. sordellii is its ability to produce spores, which can germinate into toxin-producing vegetative bacteria under favorable conditions.

Gene clusters located on two large plasmids determine spore crystal association (SCA) in Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. finitimus strain YBT-020. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Crystals in Bacillus thuringiensis are usually formed in the mother cell compartment during sporulation and are separated from the spores after mother cell lysis.

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2017 Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) are the leading cause of world-wide nosocomial acquired diarrhea. The current main clinical challenge in CDI is the elevated rate of infection recurrence that may reach up to 30% of the patients, which has been ...

Chemical Composition of Exosporium from Spores of Bacillus cereus [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1970 Homogeneous fragments of exosporium were extricated in centigram amounts from dormant spores of Bacillus cereus and analyzed for intrinsic constituents. The membrane proved to be chemically complex but not unique, consisting mainly of protein (52%), amino and neutral polysaccharides (20%), lipids (18%), and ash (4%).

Cleavage of an engulfment peptidoglycan hydrolase by a sporulation signature protease in Clostridioides difficile. [PDF]
Mol MicrobiolModel for the cleavage of SpoIIP by SpoIVB2 during sporulation in Clostridioides difficile. Soon after engulfment completion, SpoIVB2 cleaves SpoIIP, part of the engulfasome complex, to generate the SpoIIPc form. The function of SpoIVB2 is required for synthesis of the cortex layer which takes place across the outer forespore membrane.
