PCR based identification of exotoxin A-producing Pseudomonas aeroginosa isolated from burn wound infection [PDF]
Exotoxin A (exoA) is a major pathogenic factor in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. This non-fermenting gram-negative bacillus causes a wide range of infections. P. aeruginosa is a major cause of hospital-acquired infections.

Retrograde transport pathways utilised by viruses and protein toxins [PDF]
A model has been presented for retrograde transport of certain toxins and viruses from the cell surface to the ER that suggests an obligatory interaction with a glycolipid receptor at the cell surface. Here we review studies on the ER trafficking cholera
