The Immune Inhibitor A1 Protease of <em>Bacillus Anthracis</em>
… in the soil and the causative agent of anthrax, utilizes multiple mechanisms to regulate secreted factors; one example is the activity of secreted proteases. One of the most abundant proteins in the culture supernates of <em>B. anthracis</em> is the Immune Inhibitor A1 (InhA1) protease. …

Functional Characterization of Atxa, The Bacillus Anthracis Virulence Regulator
… from studies of AtxA-induced synthesis of the anthrax toxin proteins and the poly-D-glutamic acid capsule, two factors with important roles in <em>B. anthracis</em> pathogenesis. The amino-terminal region of the AtxA protein contains winged-helix (WH) and helix-turn-helix (HTH) motifs, …

Control of The Master Virulence Regulatory Gene Atxa In Bacillus Anthracis
… anthracis</em> structural genes for the anthrax toxin proteins and biosynthetic operon for capsule are positively regulated by AtxA, a transcription regulator with unique properties. Consistent with the role of <em>atxA</em> in virulence factor expression, a <em>B. anthracis</em> …
