Two Putative Polysaccharide Deacetylases Are Required for Osmotic Stability and Cell Shape Maintenance in Bacillus anthracis

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2015
Background: BA0330 and BA0331 are the only two lipoproteins among 11 known or putative polysaccharide deacetylases from Bacillus anthracis. Results: Both proteins lack deacetylase activity and are important for cell shape maintenance (BA0331) or high ...

Antibodies and Inflammation: Fecal Biomarkers of Gut Health in Domestic Ruminants

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 343, Issue 4, Page 468-479, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Gastrointestinal infections present major challenges to ruminant livestock systems, and gut health is a key constraint on fitness, welfare, and productivity. Fecal biomarkers present opportunities to monitor animal health without using invasive methods, and with greater resolution compared to observational metrics.

Bacillus anthracis Siderophores

Problems of Particularly Dangerous Infections, 2016
Iron is an essential for growth and reproduction of bacteria element. One of the ways of its acquisition by Bacillus anthracis is utilization of high-affinity chelating agents of iron ions - bacillibactin and petrobactin siderophores, extracting the iron from transferring and ferritin of a host cell. Bacillibactin and petrobactin functions are realized
