Question

Partial degradation of these structures requires YpeB, which regulates the hydrolase CwlJ and the transglycosylase SleB. These structures can be detected by adding potassium permanganate and nitrous acid in the “popping test.” An aqueous solution of carbol fuchsin (“FYOOK-sin”) and 7-percent nigrosin stains these structures, which the Schaeffer–Fulton method labels (15[1])using malachite (15[1])green and a safranin counterstain. (15[1])Alpha/beta-type SASPs and dipicolinic (-5[1])acid are abundant in the (*) cores of these structures, which are produced by many (10[1])Firmicutes (“firm-uh-KYOO-teez”). Since isopropyl alcohol does not destroy these structures, (10[1])bleach and peroxide products are necessary for clean room disinfection. The formation of these structures is well-studied in the megaterium and subtilis members of one genus. (-5[2])For 10 points, name (-5[1])these dormant structures produced (10[1]-5[1])by Clostridium (10[1])and Bacillus bacteria. ■END■ (10[1]0[5])
