The initial attachment of transforming DNA to competent Bacillus subtilis is temperature independent between 25 degrees and 45 degrees. However, below 15 degrees there is a significant reduction in the amount of DNA attached to compentent cells. The DNA that is attached at 4 degrees can lead to tran
Deoxyribonucleic acid is released into the growth medium by Bacillus subtilis at the time of competence. This DNA is enriched for the genetic markers which have previously been demonstrated to be elevated in membrane-DNA preparations and more recently in cell wall-DNA complexes. Furthermore, the pur
Following UV irradiation of Bacillus subtilis there is a coordinate induction of: 1) a new protein, 2) a W-reactivation system, 3) a DNA modification system, and 4) prophages. These functions are induced following UV irradiation of repair proficient bacteria and mutants deficient in excision repair
