Membrane translocation by anthrax toxin.

Molecular aspects of medicine - 1 Dec 2009

Collier R John

Abstract excerpt

Much attention has been focused on anthrax toxin recently, both because of its central role in the pathogenesis of Bacillus anthracis and because it has proven to be one of the most tractable toxins for studying how enzymic moieties of intracellularly acting toxins traverse membranes. The Protective Antigen (PA) moiety of the toxin, after being proteolytically activated at the cell surface, self-associates to...
