The internalization of the N-terminal catalytic domain of Bordetella pertussis adenylate cyclase toxin (ACT) across the cytoplasmic membrane has been considered to occur independently from protein-protein interactions which can lead to oligomerization required for hemolytic activity by its C-terminal hemolysin domain. Here we report that when added in excess, this hemolysin domain stimulates the internalization,...
