Phenotypic changes in spores and vegetative cells of Bacillus anthracis associated with BenK.

Microbial pathogenesis - 1 Apr 2013

Heffron Jared D, Jenkins Amy L, Bozue Joel A, Kaatz Laura K, Cote Christopher K, Welkos Susan L

Abstract excerpt

A transposon insertional mutagenesis spore library of the pathogen Bacillus anthracis was screened to identify mutants altered in germination kinetics. One mutant exhibited an accelerated rate of germination in association with disruption of benK. This gene encodes a putative protein with high ho...
