Serine affects engulfment during the sporulation process in Clostridium perfringens strain SM101
These results suggest that Ser accelerated the early stage of sporulation of C. perfringens strain SM101, but disturbed the engulfment process, resulting in reduction of sporulation. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study reporting that an amino acid affects engulfment during the C. perfringens sporulation process.
