Bacillus subtilis is a rod-shaped, Gram-positive soil bacterium that secretes numerous
enzymes to degrade a variety of substrates, enabling the bacterium to survive in a …

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB), widely used in the food industry, are present in the intestine of
most animals, including humans. The potential use of these bacteria as live vehicles for the …

To develop an ideal blood clot imaging and targeting agent, a single-chain antibody (SCA)
fragment based on a fibrin-specific monoclonal antibody, MH-1, was constructed and …

Bacillus subtilis has become a widely used microbial cell factory for the production of
recombinant proteins, especially those associated with foods and food processing. Recent …

Bacillus subtilis is an alternative host for expression and secretion of heterologous proteins.
However, low yields of protein production limit its use on a wide scale. The secretory …

In 1997, the complete genomic DNA sequence of Bacillus subtilis (4.2 Mbp) was determined
and 4100 genes were identified [Kunst, Ogasawara, Moszer, Albertini, Alloni, Azevedo …

The maturation of the peptide antibiotic (lantibiotic) subtilin in Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633

The use of bacterial systems for recombinant protein production has advantages of
simplicity, time and cost over competing systems. However, widely used bacterial …

Pullulanase plays an important role in industrial applications of starch processing. However,
extracellular production of pullulanase from recombinant Bacillus subtilis is yet limited due to …

Even though cell wall proteins of Bacillus subtilis are characterized by specific cell wall
retention signals, some of these are also components of the extracellular proteome. In …
