Allelic variation on murine chromosome 11 modifies host inflammatory responses and resistance to Bacillus anthracis.

Allelic variation on murine chromosome 11 modifies host inflammatory responses and resistance to Bacillus anthracis.

Anthrax is a potentially fatal disease resulting from infection with Bacillus anthracis. The outcome of infection is influenced by pathogen-encoded virulence factors such as lethal toxin (LT), as well as by genetic variation within the host. To identify host genes controlling susceptibility to anthr...
