A new study from the Rudner lab defines a comprehensive set of genes required for spore formation in Bacillus anthracis. Similarities and striking differences between the Bacillus subtilis model and this important human pathogen are described. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41385520/

Fer’s tour de force in B. anthracis is out! Fer got Tn-seq running, built an ordered knockout library, defined all essential sporulation genes, and found a peptidoglycan deacetylase inhibitor critical for engulfment. Including our first one-by-all Alphafold screen! journals.plos.org/plosbiology/...
