A plasmid coding for the anthrax toxin has been found in a sample of Bacillus cereus taken from a person who survived a life-threatening pneumonia symptomatic of inhaled anthrax. The finding, reported in the advanced online edition of PNAS, is the first time the complete plasmid has been found in any naturally occurring microbe other than Bacillus anthracis.
