The triterpenoid curcumene mediates the relative hydrophilicity of Bacillus subtilis spores

ABSTRACT Spores of Bacillus subtilis are surrounded and protected by the coat and the crust, multi-layered structures mainly made of proteins and polysaccharides. These polysaccharides are covalently linked to some of the coat and crust proteins and influence some spore properties, such as surface a...
