Identification of L-Valine-initiated-germination-active genes in Bacillus subtilis using Tn-seq.
Bacterial endospores can survive harsh environmental conditions and long-term dormancy in the absence of nutrients, but can rapidly germinate under favorable conditions. In the present study, we employed transposon sequencing (Tn-seq) to identify genes with previously uncharacterized roles in spore...
