Biological Activity of Heated Diphtheria Toxin [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1973
Diphtheria toxin splits into two fragments when heated at 100 C for 10 min in a phosphate buffer. The separated fragments have molecular weights of 24,000 and 39,000, respectively. These molecular weights are similar to those of the A and B fragments found in diphtheria toxin preparations after thiol reduction.
