The SpoIIQ‐SpoIIIAH complex of C lostridium difficile controls forespore engulfment and late stages of gene expression and spore morphogenesis

Engulfment of the forespore by the mother cell is a universal feature of endosporulation. In Bacillus subtilis, the forespore protein SpoIIQ and the mother cell protein SpoIIIAH form a channel, essential for endosporulation, through which the developing spore is nurtured. The two proteins also form...
