Article Synopsis
- The Bacillus subtilis spore coat consists of over 80 proteins organized into distinct layers, with CotB being a major component of the outer coat.
- CotG, another coat protein, interacts with CotB and enhances its phosphorylation by the kinase CotH, which is essential for proper outer coat structure.
- Mutations affecting CotH or CotG disrupt the formation of striations in the outer coat, highlighting the importance of this phosphorylation process for spore surface layer development.
