Abstract excerpt
In this study, the cytotoxicity of the recently described subtilase variant SubAB2-2 of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli was determined and compared to the plasmid-encoded SubAB1 and the chromosome-encoded SubAB2-1 variant. The genes for the respective enzymatic active (A) subunits and binding (B) subunits of the subtilase toxins were amplified and cloned. The recombinant toxin subunits were expressed and...
