    Phenotypes of a mutant

  • inactivation of ''[gene|B5EF521437323EF43F08E5EFDB5C798616CA499A|rex]'' reduces sporulation efficiency to 9.2% that of wild type cells [Pubmed|26735940]
  • inactivation of ''[gene|B5EF521437323EF43F08E5EFDB5C798616CA499A|rex]'' confers resistance to high concentrations of Zn(II) [Pubmed|27935957]
