Alternate atxA and acpA dependent response of Bacillus anthracis to serum, HCO3- and CO2
Bacillus anthracis overcomes host immune responses by producing capsule and secreting toxins. Production of these virulence factors in response to entering the host environment was shown to be regulated by atxA, the major virulence regulator, known to be activated by HCO3- and CO2. While toxin produ...
