Toxins of foodborne pathogen Bacillus cereus and the regulatory factors controlling the biosynthesis of its toxins

Bacillus cereus is a versatile organism which causes two distinct types of food poisoning by producing toxins. Toxin formation in B. cereus is very much a complex process involving co-regulation of multiple genes exerting control at transcriptional, translational and post-translational level and s...

description Bacillus cereus is a versatile organism which causes two distinct types of food poisoning by producing toxins. Toxin formation in B. cereus is very much a complex process involving co-regulation of multiple genes exerting control at transcriptional, translational and post-translational level and such regulations too are often influenced by extrinsic factors.
