Resumo(s)
SpoIIIJ and YqjG are the two members of the evolutionarily conserved
YidC/Oxa1/Alb3 family of membrane protein insertases present in the
Gram-positive bacterium Bacillus subtilis. Whilst either is capable of
supporting viability, only SpoIIIJ is functional during sporulation, a
carefully regulated developmental process that culminates in the
formation of a dormant and highly resistant structure, the endospore. This
partial functional overlap contrasts with the general picture of the family,
for which trans-domain complementation is well documented.(...)
