From genome to toxicity: A combinatory approach highlights the complexity of enterotoxin production in Bacillus cereus
In recent years Bacillus cereus has gained increasing importance as a food poisoning pathogen. It is the eponymous member of the B. cereus sensu lato group that consists of eight closely related species showing impressive diversity of their pathogenicity. The high variability of cytotoxicity and the...
