Kinetics of Diphtheria Toxin Formation [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1962 SUMMARY: Studies on the kinetics of diphtheria toxin formation in iron-free culture media by variants of the PW no. 8 strain of Corynebacterium diphtheriae labelled with 14C-phenylalanine or 35S-methionine, showed that the toxin protein was synthesized de novo from amino acids by growing organisms.

Rare human skin infection with Corynebacterium ulcerans: transmission by a domestic cat [PDF]
, 2018 Corynebacterium ulcerans is mainly known for its ability to cause animal infections. Some strains of C. ulcerans produce diphtheria toxin, which can cause life-threatening cardiopathies and neuropathies in humans. Human cutaneous C. ulcerans infection is

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Puerarin targets mitochondrial MIC19 in tumor‐infiltrating Tregs, impairing their immunosuppressive function and enhancing antitumor immunity. This study uncovers the metabolic dependency of tumor‐infiltrating Tregs and highlights a potential metabolic‐targeted immunotherapeutic strategy for liver cancer. Abstract Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are pivotal

Microbe profile : Corynebacterium diphtheriae - an old foe always ready to seize opportunity [PDF]
, 2018 Diphtheria AB toxin mode of action. The diphtheria AB exotoxin consists of two polypeptide chains - A and B which are linked by a disulfide bridge. The B chain binds to the heparin-binding epidermal growth factor precursor on eukaryotic cells and is ...
