Genome-wide dissection reveals diverse pathogenic roles of bacterial Tc toxins.

Genome-wide dissection reveals diverse pathogenic roles of bacterial Tc toxins.

Tc toxins were originally identified in entomopathogenic bacteria, which are important as biological pest control agents. Tc toxins are heteromeric exotoxins composed of three subunit types, TcA, TcB, and TcC. The C-terminal portion of the TcC protein encodes the actual toxic domain, which is transl...
