Abstract Background Bacillus anthracis is considered to be a recently emerged clone within the Bacillus cereus sensu lato group. The B. anthracis genome sequence contains four putative lambdoid...
Genetic Immunization Against Anthrax (2006)
Galloway, Darrell, Liner, Adriane, Legutki, Joseph, Mateczun, Alfred, Barnewall, Roy, Estep, James
The objective of this study was to determine whether a DNA prime-protein boost immunization against the Bacillus anthracis protective antigen (PA) and lethal factor (LF) antigens could induce a...
Microarray-based resequencing of multiple Bacillus anthracisisolates (2004)
Zwick, Michael E, Mcafee, Farrell, Cutler, David J, Read, Timothy D, Ravel, Jacques, Bowman, Gregory R, ...
Abstract We used custom-designed resequencing arrays to generate 3.1 Mb of genomic sequence from a panel of 56 Bacillus anthracis strains. Sequence quality was shown to be very high by replication...
Price, Brian M., Liner, Adriane L., Park, Sukjoon, Leppla, Stephen H., Mateczun, Alfred, Galloway, Darrell R.
The ability of genetic vaccination to protect against a lethal challenge of anthrax toxin was evaluated. BALB/c mice were immunized via gene gun inoculation with eucaryotic expression vector plasmids...

Albrecht, Mark T., Li, Han, Williamson, E. Diane, LeButt, Chris S., Flick-Smith, Helen C., Quinn, Conrad P., ...
The unpredictable nature of bioterrorism and the absence of real-time detection systems have highlighted the need for an efficient postexposure therapy for Bacillus anthracis infection. One approach...
Genotyping of Bacillus cereus Strains by Microarray-Based Resequencing
Zwick, Michael E., Kiley, Maureen P., Stewart, Andrew C., Mateczun, Alfred, Read, Timothy D.
The ability to distinguish microbial pathogens from closely related but nonpathogenic strains is key to understanding the population biology of these organisms. In this regard, Bacillus anthracis,...

The genome sequence of a Bacillus anthracis-specific clear plaque mutant phage, AP50c, contains 31 open reading frames spanning 14,398 bp, has two mutations compared to wild-type AP50t, and has a...
