摘要：

The expression of the Bacillus subtilis spolVB gene, which encodes a developmental cell-cell signalling molecule, has been characterized. In some conditions, this gene can be transcribed by RNA polymerase associated with either sigma(F) or sigma(G), in contrast to previous studies implying exclusive control by sigma(G). However, during sporulation, only sigma(G) directs significant levels of spolVB expression.
