The Gram-positive bacterium Bacillus subtilis initiates the process of endospore formation in response to conditions of limited nutrient availability. Endospore formation is a dramatic undertaking for a bacterium requiring the activation of approximately 500 genes over the course of six hours. A bacterium becomes irreversibly committed to completing the process of endospore formation relatively soon after its initiation, so it is not surprising that B. subtilis tightly controls the activation of Spo0A.

The Gram-positive bacterium Bacillus subtilis initiates the process of endospore formation in response to conditions of limited nutrient availability. Endospore formation is a dramatic undertaking for a bacterium requiring the activation of approximately 500 genes over the course of six hours. A bacterium becomes irreversibly committed to completing the process of endospore formation relatively soon after its initiation, so it is not surprising that B. subtilis tightly controls the activation of Spo0A.

B. subtilis employs a cannibalistic behavior to forestall committing to the process of endospore formation. Sporulating cells secrete two toxins that kill non-sporulating cells within the population. Lysis of the non-sporulating cells releases nutrients into the extracellular milieu. The sporulating cells metabolize these nutrients and consequently are able to postpone making the commitment to endospore formation.

A simple signal transduction pathway activates immunity to one of these cannibalism toxins. The pathway consists of three components: the toxin, an immunity protein, and an autorepressor which is encoded in the same operon as the immunity protein. When the toxin binds to the surface of a sporulating cell, it is neutralized as it forms a complex with the immunity protein. The immunity protein also serves as the receptor for the toxin/ligand, and in the presence of the toxin, the immunity protein induces its own synthesis by sequestering and inactivating the autorepressor at the cell membrane.

Endospore formation is triggered by the activation of a set of kinases. These kinases phosphorylate the master regulator for sporulation, Spo0A, bringing about its activation as a transcription factor. One kinase, KinA, is primarily responsible for allowing endospore formation to occur efficiently; however, an accessory kinase, KinC, is required for the maximal expression of the genes that mediate cannibalism.

Spo0A indirectly activates the expression of the genes involved in cannibalism by inactivating the transcription of a global repressor. The immunity gene becomes activated at a lower level of Spo0A activity as compared to the toxin genes. We postulate that this is because the global repressor exhibits a lower affinity for the immunity gene's promoter as compared to the promoters for the toxin genes.
