Structural and functional insights to Bacillus spore germination and toxin engineering for sustainable agriculture
Bacillus spores exhibit extraordinary resilience, surviving extreme environmental conditions through dormancy and reactivating under favourable conditions via germination. Germination is triggered by specific environmental signals detected by germinant receptors, initiating a cascade of events that …

Characterization of Bacillus Spore Membrane Proteomes and Investigation of Their Roles in the Spore Germination Process
Components of the bacterial spore germination apparatus are crucial for survival and for initiation of infection by some pathogens. While some components of the germination apparatus are well conserved in spore-forming species, such as the spoVA operon, each species may possess a different and …

Improving Disease Resistance for Shrimp Through Application of Probiotics in Feed
… disease in shrimp, (2) qPCR confirmation of Bacillus spore germination in shrimp gut, and (3) probiotic effectiveness evaluation for improving disease resistance. The virulence of several Vibrio spp. strains was examined and it was concluded the V. parahaemolyticus strain identified as the …

Exosporium Morphogenesis in Bacillus Cereus and Bacillus Anthracis
<p>Bacillus cereus is a Gram-positive spore-forming bacteria that can cause food poisoning and its close relative, Bacillus anthracis is the etiological agent of anthrax. In both cases, the spore, a differentiated cell type in a dormant state, starts the infection process. Thus, the exosporium, …
