Spo0A, the master regulator of sporulation initiation in Bacillus subtilis, controls over 500 genes directly or indirectly in early sporulation stages. Although the effects of Spo0A disruption on sporulation have been extensively studied, a comprehensive understanding of the genomic response throughout growth phases remain elusive. Here, we examined the transcriptomic changes in Spo0A mutant strain, R211E, and wild-type across a time-course RNA-seq to identify impacted biological processes and pathways. The R211E strain, which exhibits sporulation deficiency, was constructed using the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-CRISPR associated protein (Cas)9 system, highlighting the critical role of proper Cas9 dosing in gene editing. Functional analysis of 3,010 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) showed significant alterations in sporulation, quorum sensing, metabolism, and biofilm formation. The R211E disrupted the Spo0A-AbrB regulatory pathway, reducing biofilm formation and enhancing flagellar gene expression. Up-regulated metabolic pathways, including glycolysis, histidine, and purine biosynthesis, increased cell numbers during vegetative growth. Further, the mutant displayed elevated vegetative autolysin expression, resulting in reduced cell viability in the stationary phase. We also introduce the novel potential of R211E in a recombinant protein expression system that facilitated protein release into the supernatant, providing valuable insight for future research in metabolic engineering and efficient production systems in B. subtilis.
