+ 937235..937489 small acid-soluble spore protein (gamma-type SASP)
 

Operon evidence: Northern blotting (2.6 kb transcript)
Reference: Hackett RH & Setlow P (1987), Yamamoto H, et al. (1999), BSORF
Comments: The gene yfhS is located between yfhQ and fabL on the opposite DNA strand. Internal promoter in front of sspE, leading to a 0.3 kb transcript. The two internal promoters in front of fabL result in a 1.5 kb and a 1.3 kb transcript. The readthrough terminator downstream of yfhQ leads to a 1.2 kb transcript.
