Genetic diversity in the protective antigen gene of Bacillus anthracis.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Apr 1999

Price L B, Hugh-Jones M, Jackson P J, Keim P

Abstract excerpt

Bacillus anthracis is a gram-positive spore-forming bacterium that causes the disease anthrax. The anthrax toxin contains three components, including the protective antigen (PA), which binds to eucaryotic cell surface receptors and mediates the transport of toxins into the cell. In this study, the entire 2,294-nucleotide protective antigen gene (pag) was sequenced from 26 of the most diverse B. anthracis strains...
