摘要
Crystal structures of shiga and pertussis toxins have recently revealed a remarkable degree of structural homology among the members of the AB(5) class of bacterial toxins. Other structures have provided a detailed view of the molecular basis of receptor binding specificity of cholera toxin, and of the heat-labile enterotoxin of Escherichia coli. These structures also provide tantalizing, but as yet incomplete, information on the site of ADP-ribosylation in the homologous A-subunits of the Escherichia coli heat-labile toxin, cholera toxin, and pertussis toxin.
