anthracis urea-extracted proteinous preparation8 as previously described50. The proteinous extracts were prepared from a nonvirulent, non-toxinogenic and non-encapsulated Δ Vollum strain (pXO1−, pXO2−). Therefore, the ELISA test monitors the humoral response elicited against B. anthracis ...
Several species ofbacilli, almost all in the genusBacillus, are implicated as humanfoodborne pathogens.Bacillus cereusandBacillus anthracis, are well recognized as foodborne pathogens, whereas the evidence for thepathogenicityofB. subtilisandB. licheniformisis less well developed. Illness has been reported...
Bt is taxonomically closely related to Bacillus cereus and also to Bacillus anthracis (see, e.g., Henderson et al., 1994), which, however, lack the δ-endotoxin and are thus noninsecticidal and can be harbored in insects. However, the δ-endotoxin crystal-coding Bt plasmid could be tr...
The integration of capBCAE genes (homologues of pgsBCAE) from Bacillus anthracis enabled the production of LMw-γ-PGA with a range of 29 to 34 kDa. Additionally, the integration of pgsBCAE genes from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens resulted in the synthesis of medium-molecular-weight (MMw)-γ-PGA...
Anthrax is an infectious fatal disease with epidemic potential. Nowadays, bioterrorism using Bacillus anthracis is a real possibility, and thus society needs an effective weapon to neutralize this th...
anthracis, which is known to rescue the phenotype of a D-ala auxotrophic strain of E. coli.42 These findings on the upregulation of the enzymatic machinery involved in PG, LTA, and D-alanine synthesis in conjunction with the downregulation of enzymes implicated in cell wall degradation in ...
cereus sensu stricto, Bacillus anthracis, Bacillus weihenstephanensis, Bacillus thuringiensis, Bacillus mycoides, Bacillus pseudomycoides, Bacillus cytotoxicus [2], and Bacillus toyonensis [3]. All of these species are involved in food poisoning, except B. anthracis, which is the causative agent of ...
Bacillus anthracis [15] being involved in systemic and hospital acquired infections and Bacillus cereus [16], [17] in diarrhea and food poisoning. Widespread use of probiotic bacteria in conjunction and in close association with antibiotic use or rather misuse, can over time establish a reservoir ...
anthracis. So, there may be the different functions of CLPs between B. anthracis and B. amyloliquefaciens. In addition, there is also a potential domain in the C-terminal of ClpD, which is similar (99% identity) to the C-terminal of BclB of B. anthracis (Thompson et al., 2007). ...
