The unfolding story of anthrax toxin translocation [PDF]
Molecular Microbiology, 2011 SummaryThe essential cellular functions of secretion and protein degradation require a molecular machine to unfold and translocate proteins either across a membrane or into a proteolytic complex. Protein translocation is also critical for microbial pathogenesis, namely bacteria can use translocase channels to deliver toxic proteins into a target cell ...

Contribution of toxins to the pathogenesis of inhalational anthrax [PDF]
Cellular Microbiology, 2007 Inhalational anthrax is a life-threatening infectious disease of considerable concern, especially as a potential bioterrorism agent. Progress is gradually being made towards understanding the mechanisms used by Bacillus anthracis to escape the immune system and to induce severe septicaemia associated with toxaemia and leading to death.
