title: [The molecular nature of Bacillus anthracis toxin].
abstract: The biochemical nature of the three-component toxin of Bacillus anthracis is described as well as the molecular structure and regulation of the genetical determinants coding for its synthesis. The mechanism of toxin affect on animal cells is presented. The role of every of the toxin components in realization of Bacillus anthracis pathogenic properties is discussed.
