Structural insights into Clostridium perfringens delta toxin pore formation [PDF]
, 2013 Clostridium perfringens Delta toxin is one of the three hemolysin-like proteins produced by C. perfringens type C and possibly type B strains. One of the others, NetB, has been shown to be the major cause of Avian Nectrotic Enteritis, which following the

Drosophila embryos as model systems for monitoring bacterial infection in real time [PDF]
, 2009 Drosophila embryos are well studied developmental microcosms that have been used extensively as models for early development and more recently wound repair. Here we extend this work by looking at embryos as model systems for following bacterial infection
