Recombinant Bacillus cereus UPF0758 protein BCE_4545 is a protein associated with Bacillus cereus . It is also referred to as BCE_4545 .
Bacillus cereus is a facultative anaerobic, spore-forming bacterium commonly found in diverse environments such as soil, vegetables, and various raw and processed foods . Bacillus cereus is known to cause emetic and diarrheal syndromes .
Bacillus cereus pathogenicity is still not well understood and requires more research . Bacillus cereus produces enterotoxins that can cause diarrheal syndromes . Cytotoxins like Nhe, Hbl, and CytK mainly cause gastrointestinal toxicity . The PlcR regulon in Bacillus cereus integrates environmental signals and regulates the transcription of genes that help the bacterium grow within a host .
