Structure and Assembly of the Bacillus anthracis Exosporium [PDF]
Microscopy and Microanalysis, 2015 Bacillus anthracis, the causative agent of anthrax, is a highly pathogenic Gram-positive soil bacterium that is also considered a serious threat as a potential bioterrorism agent. Like other bacilli, B. anthracis forms protective spores upon starvation.

Thermophile Endospores have Responsive Exosporium for Attachment [PDF]
Microscopy and Microanalysis, 1999 Abstract Recently studies examining the colonization of Clostridial pathogens on agar and human tissue culture cells, demonstrated that (C. sporogenes ATCC 3584, C. difficile ATCC 43594 [patient isolate], C. difficile ATCC 9689 [non-clinical], C.

mBio, 2018 Bacterial spores produced by the Bacillales are composed of concentric shells, each of which contributes to spore function. Spores from all species possess a cortex and coat, but spores from many species possess additional outer layers.

Assembly of the
Molecular Microbiology, 2012 SummaryThe outermost layer of the Bacillus anthracis spore consists of an exosporium comprised of an outer hair‐like nap layer and an internal basal layer. A major component of the hair‐like nap is the glycosylated collagen‐like protein BclA. A second collagen‐like protein, BclB, is also present in the exosporium.

The Morphology and Ultrastructure of the Spore and Exosporium of Some Clostridium Species [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1967 Surmmary The spores of original isolates of Clostridium species obtained from fresh and processed marine fish and from marine bottom deposits were compared with the spores of culture collection strains of the same species. These strains were Clostridium botulinum type E, C. sporogenes, C. bifermentans and C. sordellii.
