Fluctuations in spo0A transcription control rare developmental transitions in Bacillus subtilis.
Phosphorylated Spo0A is a master regulator of stationary phase development in the model bacterium Bacillus subtilis, controlling the formation of spores, biofilms, and cells competent for transformation. We have monitored the rate of transcription of the spo0A gene during growth in sporulation mediu...
