GENE REGULATION PATHWAYS AFFECT TOXIN GENE EXPRESSION, SPORULATION AND PIGMENT GENERATION IN BACILLUS ANTHRACIS AND
B. anthracis alters its virulence gene expression profile in response to a number of environmental signals, including levels of bicarbonate and CO2. Virulence plasmid pXO1 is important to Bacillus anthracis pathogenicity as it carries the genes encoding the anthrax toxin and virulence regulatory fac...
