Differences in pattern of a DNA protein complex isolated from vegetative cells and spores of Bacillus subtilis.
A DNA protein complex has been isolated from vegetative cells and spores of Bacillus subtilis. Properties of the DNA protein complex prepared from vegetative cells were studied and SDS gel electrophoresis was employed to compare the different DNase-untreated and -treated DNA protein complexes. It is concluded that proteins are associated with the DNA and differences in protein pattern in polyacrylamide gels indicates the involvement of DNA-binding proteins in the regulation of spore formation.
