Intracellular Localization of the Proteins Encoded by Some Type II Toxin-Antitoxin Systems in Escherichia coli

open access: yesmBio, 2021
Bacterial toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems encode a toxin and an antitoxin that counteracts the toxin. Such TA systems are found abundantly on bacterial chromosomes and on extrachromosomal genetic elements. The toxin is always a protein.

Bacterial community affects toxin production by Gymnodinium catenatum. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The paralytic shellfish toxin (PST)-producing dinoflagellate Gymnodinium catenatum grows in association with a complex marine bacterial community that is both essential for growth and can alter culture growth dynamics.

Membrane-Pore Forming Characteristics of the Bordetella pertussis CyaA-Hemolysin Domain

open access: yesToxins, 2015
Previously, the 126-kDa Bordetella pertussis CyaA pore-forming/hemolysin (CyaA-Hly) domain was shown to retain its hemolytic activity causing lysis of susceptible erythrocytes. Here, we have succeeded in producing, at large quantity and high purity, the

Structural and functional insights into the delivery of a bacterial Rhs pore-forming toxin to the membrane

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Bacterial competition is a significant driver of toxin polymorphism, which allows continual compensatory evolution between toxins and the resistance developed to overcome their activity.

THE BACTERIAL TOXINS. [PDF]

open access: yesJAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1901
Our object in presenting this paper is merely to outline the theory of the nature and action of the bacterial toxins which we are endeavoring to demonstrate, and to describe our method of work and the results which we have reached through the experiments we have so far made, which are very incomplete and really only a beginning toward the thorough ...

Enhancement of insect susceptibility and larvicidal efficacy of Cry4Ba toxin by calcofluor

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2018
Background Mosquitoes transmit many vector-borne infectious diseases including malaria, dengue, chikungunya, yellow fever, filariasis, and Japanese encephalitis. The insecticidal δ-endotoxins Cry4, Cry11, and Cyt produced from Bacillus thuringiensis have

Functional Contributions of Positive Charges in the Pore-Lining Helix 3 of the Bordetella pertussis CyaA-Hemolysin to Hemolytic Activity and Ion-Channel Opening

open access: yesToxins, 2017
The Bordetella pertussis CyaA-hemolysin (CyaA-Hly) domain was previously demonstrated to be an important determinant for hemolysis against target erythrocytes and ion-channel formation in planar lipid bilayers (PLBs).

Paeoniflorin Derivative in Paeoniae Radix Aqueous Extract Suppresses Alpha-Toxin of Staphylococcus aureus

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The emergence and dissemination of bacterial infections is paralyzing our public health systems worldwide. Worse still, there are no effective antibiotics against bacterial toxins, which facilitate the infection.

The C-Terminal Domain of the Bacillus thuringiensis Cry4Ba Mosquito-Specific Toxin Serves as a Potential Membrane Anchor

open access: yesToxins, 2019
Although the C-terminal domain (DIII) of three-domain Cry insecticidal toxins from Bacillus thuringiensis has been implicated in various biological functions, its exact role still remains to be elucidated.

A STUDY ON INCIDENCE AND GROWTH HAZARDS OF BACILLUS CEREUS IN EGYPTIAN PASTEURIZED MILK DURING REFRIGERATOR STORAGE

open access: yesAssiut Veterinary Medical Journal, 2009
A total of 80 random samples, fortyof each of pasteurized full cream and skimmed milk were collected from local Egyptian markets. Samples were screened for the occurrence of Bacillus cereus. The incidence and total count of B.
