Identification of Native Cross-Links in <i>Bacillus subtilis</i> Spore Coat Proteins. [PDF]
J Proteome Res, 2021 The resistance properties of the bacterial spores are partially due to spore surface proteins, ∼30% of which are said to form an insoluble protein fraction. Previous research has also identified a group of spore coat proteins affected by spore maturation,

Studies on the Bacterial Spore Coat
Nippon Saikingaku Zasshi, 1970 The chemical structures of three characteristic fractions each isolated from the dormant spore coats of Bacillus megaterium QM B1551 and B. megaterium ATCC 19213 were studied. The paracrystal fractions corresponding to the fibrillar structure of the inner coat composed mainly of keratin-like substance and alkali-soluble fractions consisted of acidic ...

Spore Coat Architecture of Clostridium novyi NT Spores [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 2007 ABSTRACT Spores of the anaerobic bacterium Clostridium novyi NT are able to germinate in and destroy hypoxic regions of tumors in experimental animals. Future progress in this area will benefit from a better understanding of the germination and outgrowth processes that are essential for the tumorilytic ...

Involvement of the spore coat in germination of Bacillus cereus T spores [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1987 Bacillus cereus T spores were prepared on fortified nutrient agar, and the spore coat and outer membrane were extracted by 0.5% sodium dodecyl sulfate-100 mM dithiothreitol in 0.1 M sodium chloride (SDS-DTT) at pH 10.5 (coat-defective spores). Coat-defective spores in L-alanine plus adenosine germinated slowly and to a lesser extent than spores not ...

Reevaluation of Bacitracin as a Spore Coat Component [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1970 Analysis of hydrolysates of highly purified spore coats revealed only small quantities of ornithine, a component of bacitracin. We conclude that the peptide, bacitracin, is not a significant component of spore coats.

Properties of the Bacillus subtilis spore coat [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1979 About 70% of the protein in isolated Bacillus subtilis spore coats was solubilized by treatment with a combination of reducing and denaturing agents at alkaline pH. The residue, consisting primarily of protein, was insoluble in a variety of reagents.

Flexibility of the programme of spore coat formation in Bacillus subtilis: bypass of CotE requirement by over-production of CotH. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Bacterial spores are surrounded by the coat, a multilayered shell that contributes in protecting the genome during stress conditions. In Bacillus subtilis, the model organism for spore formers, the coat is composed by about seventy different proteins ...

Bacillus subtilis spores displaying RBD domain of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein
Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2023 Bacillus subtilis spores are considered to be efficient and useful vehicles for the surface display and delivery of heterologous proteins. In this study, we prepared recombinant spores with the receptor binding domain (RBD) of the SARS-CoV-2 spike ...
