Eijlander, R. T. et al. SporeWeb: an interactive journey through the complete sporulation cycle of Bacillus subtilis. Nucl. Acids Res. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/nar ...
Fowler's bacillus is one of several organisms which form a non-viable inclusion or parasporal body during the process of sporulation. This body is globular and may be as large as or larger than the ...
Researchers set out to explain how B. subtilis times its sporulation decision with its cell-division cycle, a programmed series of events that cells normally follow to reproduce. What they found is ...
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 74, No. 3 (Mar., 1977), pp. 1254-1258 (5 pages) A mutant with an alteration in the major intracellular serine ...
Because natural resources are always limited, the right strategy decides about success in life. This also applies to spore-forming bacteria. Bacillus subtilis can survive unfavourable living ...
VALENCIA, CA — A recent study has confirmed that UV light alone is insufficient to disinfect anthrax spores. However, with the correct exposure and proper filtration, UV products can be effective ...
We tend to think of bacteria as engaging in chemical warfare only when they attack us, wreaking havoc on our cells. But the microbiome is a vicious place, with many species hurling toxins at each ...
