Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Strains of the Gram-positive bacterium Clostridium perfringens produce a two-domain enterotoxin (CpE) that afflict millions of humans and domesticated animals annually by causing prevalent gastrointestinal illnesses. CpE’s C-terminal domain (cCpE) binds cell surface receptors then its N-terminal domain restructures to form a membrane-penetrating β -barrel pore, which is toxic to epithelial cel...
