摘要
The alanine-stimulated spore germination responses of Bacillus subtilis 168 have been dissected by combining physiological and genetical approaches. From the analyses the authors infer that there are three classes of alanine response. Two of the responses are mediated via the GerA proteins, with and without germinal adjuncts, the third is mediated via the GerB proteins and obligately requires adjuncts.
