    Phenotypes of a mutant

  • inactivation of ''[gene|2C54FE2ADC82FF414D732018C90649D477A925AD|spo0A]'' restores beta-lactam resistance in a ''[gene|081DF3EE9FA56209D648C7677188C61CE3AA8E41|sigM]'' mutant [Pubmed|22211522]
  • altered cell death pattern in colonies [Pubmed|23012477]
  • The protein

    Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity

  • activation of gene expression at the onset of [SW|sporulation] ([SW|Spo0A regulon])
