Analysis of the germination of spores of Bacillus subtilis with temperature sensitive spo mutations in the spoVA operon.

A Bacillus subtilis strain with a base substitution in the ribosome-binding site of spoVAC was temperature sensitive (ts) in sporulation and spores prepared at the permissive temperature were ts in L-alanine-triggered germination, but not in germination with Ca2+-dipicolinic acid (DPA) or dodecylamine. Spores of a ts spo mutant with a missense mutation in the spoVAC coding region were not ts for germination with l-alanine, dodecylamine or Ca2+-DPA. These findings are discussed in light of the proposal that SpoVA proteins are involved not only in DPA uptake during sporulation, but also in DPA release during nutrient-mediated spore germination.[1]
