title: Whole-Genome Sequencing of the Nonproteolytic Bacillus anthracis V770-NP1-R Strain Reveals Multiple Mutations in Peptidase Loci.
abstract: We report the draft whole-genome sequence of the nonproteolytic Bacillus anthracis V770-NP1-R strain. Compared to those of other B. anthracis strains, the genome exhibits unique mutations in multiple targets potentially affecting proteolytic functions. One of these mutations is a deletion that disrupts the NprR quorum-sensing regulator of the NprA protease.
