摘要：

An asporogenous strain of Bacillus subtilis, IS53, transformed with plasmid pPA102, produces the protective antigen (PA) component of the tripartite toxin of B. anthracis. Addition of yeast extract was required to support growth and PA production in all the media examined. Protective antigen expression was down-regulated during exponential growth and extracellular proteases caused marked degradation of the mature protein.
