Bacillus subtilis mutations that alter the pathway of phosphorylation of the anti-anti-sigmaF factor SpoIIAA lead to a Spo- phenotype.

Sigma-F, the first sporulation-specific transcription factor of Bacillus subtilis, is regulated by an anti-sigma factor SpoIIAB, which can also act as a protein kinase that phosphorylates the anti-anti-sigma factor SpoIIAA. The time course of phosphorylation reaction is biphasic, a fact that has bee...
