Anthrax lethal and edema toxins in anthrax pathogenesis [PDF]
Trends in Microbiology, 2014 The pathophysiological effects resulting from many bacterial diseases are caused by exotoxins released by the bacteria. Bacillus anthracis, a spore-forming bacterium, is such a pathogen, causing anthrax through a combination of bacterial infection and toxemia. B.

Though its lethal effects were ascribed to an exotoxin almost half a century ago, the pathogenesis of anthrax has yet to be satisfactorily explained. Subsequent work has led to the molecular identification and enzymatic characterization of three proteins that constitute two anthrax toxins.

Critical Reviews in Microbiology, 2001
Anthrax is primarily a disease of herbivores caused by gram-positive, aerobic, spore-forming Bacillus anthracis. Humans are accidental hosts through the food of animal origin and animal products. Anthrax is prevelant in most parts of the globe, and cases of anthrax have been reported from almost every country.

Annual Review of Cell and Developmental Biology, 2003
▪ Abstract Anthrax toxin consists of three nontoxic proteins that associate in binary or ternary combinations to form toxic complexes at the surface of mammalian cells. One of these proteins, protective antigen (PA), transports the other two, edema factor (EF) and lethal factor (LF), to the cytosol.

Stoichiometry of Anthrax Toxin Complexes
Biochemistry, 2001After being proteolytically activated, the protective antigen (PA) moiety of anthrax toxin self-associates to form symmetric, ring-shaped heptamers. Heptameric PA competitively binds the enzymatic moieties of the toxin, edema factor and lethal factor, and translocates them across the endosomal membrane by a pH-dependent process. We used two independent

The roles of anthrax toxin in pathogenesis
Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2004Anthrax lethal toxin is a multi-functional virulence factor that has evolved to target multiple host functions to allow for optimal establishment of Bacillus anthracis infection. The toxin appears to play a role in all stages of infection, from germination to the induction of vascular collapse leading to host death.

Anthrax toxin receptor proteins
Biochemical Pharmacology, 2003Anthrax toxin is a key virulence factor for Bacillus anthracis, the causative agent of anthrax. Here we discuss what is known about the anthrax toxin receptor (ATR), the cellular receptor for anthrax toxin, and how this information is being used to develop treatments for anthrax as well as to understand aspects of cancer. ATR was identified recently as

Anthrax is a disease known since antiquity1 and one of the first bacterial infections whose etiology was definitively established. The disease is caused by the Gram-positive, aerobic, spore-forming Bacillus anthracis, first isolated in 1877 by Robert Koch.2 The study of anthrax led to the establishment of Koch’s postulates, a set of criteria for ...
