YpeB dimerization may be required to stabilize SleB for effective germination of Bacillus anthracis spores
Abstract Background Bacillus cells faced with unfavorable environmental conditions undergo an asymmetric division process ultimately leading to the formation of the bacterial spore. In some instances the spore serves as an infectious agent; such is the case with the spore of Bacillus anthracis and t...
