| gerM | spoIIE | BSU28380 | BSU00640 | Germination (cortex hydrolysis) and sporulation (stage II, multiple polar septa) lytic enzyme; Unknown. Affects both sporulation and germination. | SpoIIAA-phosphate serine phosphatase; Normally needed for pro-sigma E processing during sporulation but can be bypassed in vegetative cells. Activates SpoIIAA by dephosphorylation. | 0.759 |
| gerM | spoIIGA | BSU28380 | BSU15310 | Germination (cortex hydrolysis) and sporulation (stage II, multiple polar septa) lytic enzyme; Unknown. Affects both sporulation and germination. | Protease processing pro-sigma-E; Probable aspartic protease that is responsible for the proteolytic cleavage of the RNA polymerase sigma E factor (SigE/spoIIGB) to yield the active peptide in the mother cell during sporulation. Responds to a signal from the forespore that is triggered by the extracellular signal protein SpoIIR. Belongs to the peptidase U4 family. | 0.757 |
| gerM | spoIVFA | BSU28380 | BSU27980 | Germination (cortex hydrolysis) and sporulation (stage II, multiple polar septa) lytic enzyme; Unknown. Affects both sporulation and germination. | Regulator of SpoIVFB (stage IV sporulation); Implicated in the coupling of mother cell to forespore gene expression. Required for spore formation at 37 degrees Celsius, but not at 30 degrees Celsius. SpoIVFA plays a central role in both maintaining the SpoIVFA/BofA/SpoIVFB complex and anchoring it to the outer forespore membrane. SpoIVFA brings BofA into close proximity to SpoIVFB, allowing BofA to inhibit SpoIVFB. Increased accumulation of SpoIVFA seems to inhibit the activity of SpoIVFB and thus regulates the activation of sigma-K. | 0.782 |
