Deciphering metabolic differentiation during Bacillus subtilis sporulation

Abstract The bacterium Bacillus subtilis undergoes asymmetric cell division during sporulation, producing a mother cell and a smaller forespore connected by the SpoIIQ-SpoIIIA (or Q-A) channel. The two cells differentiate metabolically, and the forespore becomes dependent on the mother cell for esse...
