Article Synopsis
  • Surface properties like adhesion and hydrophobicity in Bacillus subtilis are affected by the spore's outer crust layers, which are determined by specific genes.
  • Research revealed that mutations in these genes increased hydrophobicity and disrupted the polysaccharide layer and overall crust structure.
  • CotO is crucial for proper crust formation, and fluorescence microscopy showed that CotZ is essential for localizing crust proteins, with CgeA being the least influential in this genetic network.
