Whole genome sequencing of phage resistant Bacillus anthracis mutants reveals an essential role for cell surface anchoring protein CsaB in phage AP50c adsorption

BACKGROUND: Spontaneous Bacillus anthracis mutants resistant to infection by phage AP50c (AP50(R)) exhibit a mucoid colony phenotype and secrete an extracellular matrix. METHODS: Here we utilized a Roche/454-based whole genome sequencing approach to identify mutations that are candidates for conferr...
