Bacillus subtilis Stressosome Sensor Protein Sequences Govern the Ability To Distinguish among Environmental Stressors and Elicit Different σB Response Profiles

ABSTRACT Bacteria use a variety of systems to sense stress and mount an appropriate response to ensure fitness and survival. Bacillus subtilis uses stressosomes—cytoplasmic multiprotein complexes—to sense environmental stressors and enact the general stress response by activating the alternative sig...
