    • Abstract:
      A new study by M. J. Flores, K. Duricy, S. Choudhary, M. Laue, and D. L. Popham (J Bacteriol 205:e00142-23, 2023, https://doi.org/10.1128/jb.00142-23 ) demonstrates a role for the YlaJ/YhcN family of lipoproteins in the immobilization of the spore’s inner membrane. In the absence of these lipoproteins, membrane fluidity increases and membrane-associated proteins like the GerA receptor complexes are more exposed to inimical conditions. The role of these proteins in stabilizing the Bacillus spore inner membrane is now being explored.
