The <i>Bacillus anthracis</i> Cell Envelope: Composition, Physiological Role, and Clinical Relevance

The <i>Bacillus anthracis</i> Cell Envelope: Composition, Physiological Role, and Clinical Relevance

Anthrax is a highly resilient and deadly disease caused by the spore-forming bacterial pathogen <i>Bacillus anthracis</i>. The bacterium presents a complex and dynamic composition of its cell envelope, which changes in response to developmental and environmental conditions and host-depen...
