A DNA fragment (2.7 kbp) containing three deduced open reading frames, orf1, orf2 and orf3 (partial sequence), was isolated from the genomic library of Bacillus subtilis using an antiserum raised against spore integument, and was sequenced. orf2 was 519 nucleotides long and encoded a protein of 172 amino acids with a predicted molecular size of 19,552, corresponding to the protein which reacted with the antiserum. Immunoelectron microscopic observation indicated that YrbB, the product of orf2, was located within the spore integument, mainly in the cortex layer with a part in the inner region of the coat layer.

D008854 Microscopy, Electron Microscopy using an electron beam, instead of light, to visualize the sample, thereby allowing much greater magnification. The interactions of ELECTRONS with specimens are used to provide information about the fine structure of that specimen. In TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY the reactions of the electrons that are transmitted through the specimen are imaged. In SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPY an electron beam falls at a non-normal angle on the specimen and the image is derived from the reactions occurring above the plane of the specimen. Electron Microscopy
