Halolysin SptA, a Serine Protease, Contributes to Growth-Phase Transition of Haloarchaeon Natrinema sp. J7-2, and Its Expression Involves Cooperative Action of Multiple Cis-Regulatory Elements
Many haloarchaea produce extracellular subtilisin-like proteases (halolysins) during late log phase; however, the physiological function and regulatory mechanism of growth phase-dependent production of halolysins are unknown. Halolysin SptA, the major extracellular protease of Natrinema sp. J7-2, is...
