    Phenotypes of a mutant

  • cells are bent and distended due to the lack of glucolipids [Pubmed|27684739]
  • the inactivation of ''[gene|D368988F85D8436DD424B0B4A1591BDF092A8EA7|gtaB]'' suppresses the poor and filametous growth of the ''[gene|1986DB3078FBA16D6ACCD70EEAC95C46564D0958|whiA] [gene|EAD44AA7D72510B70308FD0C9F159DBEDAEBBB74|zapA]'' double mutant [Pubmed|24097947]
  • inactivation of ''[gene|D368988F85D8436DD424B0B4A1591BDF092A8EA7|gtaB]'' reduces sporulation efficiency to 0.1% that of wild type cells; smaller, wider mother cells with small forespores [Pubmed|26735940]
  • resistant to phage SPO1 [pubmed|30811056]
  • The protein
