Abstract excerpt
Recent experimental evidence indicates that Escherichia coli heat-labile enterotoxin and the closely related cholera toxin gain access to intracellular target substrates through a brefeldin A-sensitive pathway that may involve retrograde transport through the Golgi-endoplasmic reticulum network. The A subunits of both toxins possess a carboxy-terminal tetrapeptide sequence (KDEL in cholera toxin and RDEL in the...
