Clostridium perfringens Enterotoxin: Action, Genetics, and Translational Applications
Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin (CPE) is responsible for causing the gastrointestinal symptoms of several C. perfringens food- and nonfood-borne human gastrointestinal diseases. The enterotoxin gene (cpe) is located on either the chromosome (for most

Identification of Enterotoxin E [PDF]
Identification of a new enterotoxin was accomplished by purification of the enterotoxin produced by staphylococcal strain FRI-326 and by preparation of specific antitoxin to the enterotoxin. Toxicity of the preparations was determined in rhesus monkeys, and specificity of the enterotoxin-antitoxin reaction was determined in gel diffusion plates.

Structures of a synthetic antibody selected against and bound to the C-terminal domain of Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin. [PDF]
Abstract Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin (CpE) causes cytotoxic gastrointestinal disease in mammalian epithelium by binding membrane protein receptors called claudins. Claudins direct the formation of cell/cell tight junctions through oligomerization and govern the transport of molecules between individual cells.

Structural basis for disruption of claudin assembly in tight junctions by an enterotoxin
The food-poisoning bacterium Clostridium perfringens produces an enterotoxin (~35 kDa) that specifically targets human claudin-4, among the 26 human claudin proteins, and causes diarrhea by fluid accumulation in the intestinal cavity.
