Signalizační působení adenylát-cyklázového toxinu na fagocyty [PDF]
, 2016 Adenylát-cyklázový toxin (CyaA) je klíčovým faktorem virulence bakterie Bordetella pertussis. CyaA se váže na fagocyty produkující komplementový receptor 3 (CR3) a následně katalyzuje přeměnu vnitrobuněčného ATP na významného "druhého posla" cAMP.
