Abstract
DNA-dependent RNA polymerase has been purified from Bacillus subtilis at various stages of vegetative cell growth. Polymerase isolated from cultures approaching the end of the logarithmic growth phase was associated with a 60,000-dalton polypeptide and was only 10–20% as active as polymerase isolated from rapidly growing cells. Appearance of this new polypeptide and the change in template activity occur prior to stage 0 of sporulation.
