Genes in this functional category
Spore coat proteins
Class I
- these proteins completly cover the membrane around the forespore
- early localizing spore coat proteins
Class II
- these proteins localize simultaneously with the class I proteins but begin to encase the spore only after engulfment is complete
- early localizing spore coat proteins
Class III
- these proteins localize simultaneously with the class I and class II proteins but start to encase the spore only after the appearance of phase dark spores (hr 4.5)
- early localizing spore coat proteins
Class IV
- late localizing spore coat proteins (only after completion of engulfment)
- intermediate between classes III and V
Class V
- late localizing spore coat proteins (only after completion of engulfment)
- localize exclusively to phase dark spores
- localize simultaneously to both poles of the spore
Class VI
- late localizing spore coat proteins (only after completion of engulfment)
- most delayed initial localization
- localize excluseively to phase bright spores

Important web site: SporeWeb
- SporeWeb is a dynamic web-based platform describing all stages of sporulation in B. subtilis from a gene regulatory point of view. The website is intended for all microbial researches interested in bacterial sporulation and/or gene regulatory networks and contains useful information for both sporulation experts and non-experts.
- You can find:
- detailed review-like descriptions of all sporulation stages,
- schematic representations of regulatory events during every stage,
- links to specific regulators and their regulons,
- access to detailed Excel sheets of all sporulation-specific regulons,
- Cytoscape-generated layouts of regulon interactions during a specific stage,
- a tool to generate your own Cytoscape interaction figure for specific genes of interest,
- heat maps showing expression values of all sporulation genes during the sporulation cycle (derived from Nicolas et al., 2012),
