• The extracytoplasmic function (ECF) sigma factors. (2002, background): “One example is the pspA(ydjF) gene (Wiegert et al., 2001), which is oW-dependent but differs in what was presumed to be an invariant base in the -10 region (Table 7).”
• Antibiotics that inhibit cell wall biosynthesis induce expression of the Bacillus subtilisσW and σM regulons (2002, methodology): “Analysis of the alkali shock stimulon led to the unexpected discovery that the sW regulon accounts for a large fraction of the genes that are induced most strongly after a sudden shift in pH to 8.9, a growth-limiting alkaline shock (Wiegert et al., 2001).”
