The Bacillus subtilis signaling protein SpoIVB defines a new family of serine peptidases.
The protein SpoIVB plays a key role in signaling in the final sigma(K) checkpoint of Bacillus subtilis. This regulatory mechanism coordinates late gene expression during development in this organism and we have recently shown SpoIVB to be a serine peptidase. SpoIVB signals by transiting a membrane,...
