Bacillus anthracis and antibacterial agents [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2002 Anthrax is one of the oldest threats to humankind, and remains endemic in animals in many parts of the world. Human cases are infrequent, and some result from biological warfare. This review summarizes the current knowledge on the antibacterial activity of available antibiotics. For potential use in the most severe cases of anthrax, antibacterials need

Bacillus anthracis physiology and genetics [PDF]
Molecular Aspects of Medicine, 2009 Bacillus anthracis is a member of the Bacillus cereus group species (also known as the "group 1 bacilli"), a collection of Gram-positive spore-forming soil bacteria that are non-fastidious facultative anaerobes with very similar growth characteristics and natural genetic exchange systems. Despite their close physiology and genetics, the B. cereus group

Sugar-based bactericides targeting phosphatidylethanolamine-enriched membranes
Nature Communications, 2018 Bacillus anthracis causes the infectious disease anthrax. Here, the authors synthesized deoxy glycosides that are effective against B. anthracis and related bacteria and found that these amphiphilic compounds kill bacteria via an unusual mechanism of ...

Genome differences that distinguish Bacillus anthracis from Bacillus cereus and Bacillus thuringiensis [PDF]
, 2003 The three species of the group 1 bacilli, Bacillus anthracis, B. cereus, and B. thuringiensis, are genetically very closely related. All inhabit soil habitats but exhibit different phenotypes. B.
