TLDR
Mycobacillin non-producers, whether sporogenous or asporogenous, possess less exoprotease, but effsotive exoproteinase producers are not always good myc Cobacillin yielders.
Abstract
Mycobacillin non-producers, whether sporogenous or asporogenous, possess less exoprotease, but effsotive exoprotease producers are not always good mycobacillin yielders. There might exist a minimum level of exoprotease formation for elaboration of mycobacillin.

Genetics and Biochemistry of Secondary Metabolism

TL;DR: The genetics of secondary metabolism and sporulation is more complex than the genetics of growth because the expression of genes involved in these processes is superimposed on theexpression of the logarithmic phase genes.

Regulation of Extracellular Protease Production in Bacillus cereus

TL;DR: The fact that a variety of metabolic alterations could lead to excessive protease production suggested that a common catabolic or biosynthetic intermediate was involved in the control of the production of this enzyme(s).

Postlogarithmic phase metabolism of sporulating microorganisms. i. protease of bacillus licheniformis.

TL;DR: The purpose of this investigation was to characterize the B. licheniformis enzyme to determine whether its activity is consistent with a possible funct,ion in the sporulative events of the cell that produces it.

Some characteristics of bacitracin production by Bacillus licheniformis

TL;DR: The time required for production of bacitracin has been shortened from 3 to 6 days to 24 hr., and a working hypothesis for the mechanism of biosynthesis of this polypeptide antibiotic has been proposed.

Polypeptide antibiotic-negative sporeformer mutants of bacillus subtilis

TL;DR: The spores ofStreptomycin-resistant or adenine-requiring mutants of Bacillus subtilis may be producers, feeble producers or non-producers, of mycobacillin, an antifungal polypeptide antibiotic, but they all form spores including even the myc Cobacillin-negative mutants.
