UnknownSuppression of engulfment defects in bacillus subtilis by elevated expression of the motility regulon.
During Bacillus subtilis sporulation, the transient engulfment defect of spoIIB strains is enhanced by spoVG null mutations and suppressed by spoVS null mutations. These mutations have opposite effects on expression of the motility regulon, as the spoVG mutation reduces and the spoVS mutation increa...

UnknownCharacterization of the dnaG locus in Mycobacterium smegmatis reveals linkage of DNA replication and cell division.
We have isolated a UV-induced temperature-sensitive mutant of Mycobacterium smegmatis that fails to grow at 42 degrees C and exhibits a filamentous phenotype following incubation at the nonpermissive temperature, reminiscent of a defect in cell division. Complementation of this mutant with an M. sme...

UnknownDual localization pathways for the engulfment proteins during Bacillus subtilis sporulation.
Engulfment in Bacillus subtilis is mediated by two complementary systems, SpoIID, SpoIIM and SpoIIP (DMP), which are essential for engulfment, and the SpoIIQ-SpoIIIAGH (Q-AH) zipper, which provides a secondary engulfment mechanism and recruits other proteins to the septum. We here identify two mecha...
