Reservoir of Bacterial Exotoxin Genes in the Environment
Many bacteria produce secreted virulence factors called exotoxins. Exotoxins are often encoded by mobile genetic elements, including bacteriophage (phage). Phage can transfer genetic information to the bacteria they infect.

Chimeric carrier proteins for targeted delivery of tumor antigens to professional antigen presenting cells [PDF]
Tumor-specific T lymphocytes can be regarded as a highly effective mechanism for tumor rejection. A substantial number of T-cell defined tumor antigens including mutated oncoproteins and differentiation antigens have been identified.

Effect of a nematicidal Bacillus thuringiensis strain on free- living nematodes : 3. Characterization of the intoxication process [PDF]
La toxicité de #Bacillus thuringiensis$ est fonction de la température. L'incubation de #Caenorhabditis elegans$ avec des souches de #B. thuringiensis$ à 16, 20 et 25°C montre que la toxicité décroît en même temps que la température.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin A and keratitis in mice.
To determine the importance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin A (ETA) as a virulence factor in corneal disease.Isogenic mutants deficient in ETA were constructed in P. aeruginosa strains PAO1 and ATCC 19660 by allelic exchange and then evaluated for virulence in a mouse model of bacterial keratitis.
