Synthesis of Bacillus cereus spore coat protein [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1981 The major structural protein of Bacillus cereus spore coats was synthesized, commencing 1 to 2 h after the end of exponential growth, as a precursor with a mass of ca. 65,000 daltons. About 40% of this precursor, i.e. 26,000 daltons, was converted to spore coat monomers of 13,000 daltons each, perhaps as disulfide-linked dimers.

Bacillus subtilis regulatory protein GerE [PDF]
, 1998 GerE is the latest-acting of a series of factors which regulate gene expression in the mother cell during sporulation in Bacillus. The gene encoding GerE has been cloned from B. subtilis and overexpressed in Escherichia coli.

Metal-phenolic networks as tuneable spore coat mimetics
Journal of Materials Chemistry B, 2022 Bacillus subtilis are probiotic microbes that are difficult to formulate when they are not in their spore form. Using self-assembling coatings, these cells were successfully protected during the freeze-drying process.

Bacterial Spore mRNA – What’s Up With That?
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Bacteria belonging to the orders Bacillales and Clostridiales form spores in response to nutrient starvation. From a simplified morphological perspective, the spore can be considered as comprising a central protoplast or core, that is, enveloped ...

International Journal of Food Microbiology, 2020 Microbial surface contamination of equipment or of food contact material is a recurring problem in the food industry. Spore-forming bacteria are far more resistant to a wide variety of treatments than their vegetative forms. Understanding the mechanisms underlying decontamination processes is needed to improve surface decontamination strategies against

mBio, 2023 Bacterial spores are metabolically dormant, resistant to microbicides, and vectors of food spoilage and diseases, while germinated spores are easy to kill. Consequently, understanding germination mechanisms may facilitate the development of “germinate-to-

CotG-Like modular proteins are common among spore-forming bacilli [PDF]
, 2016 CotG is an abundant protein initially identified as an outer component of the Bacillus subtilis spore coat. It has an unusual structure characterized by several repeats of positively charged amino acids that are probably the outcome of multiple rounds of
