Alternate typhoid toxin assembly evolved independently in the two Salmonella species
ABSTRACTAB5-type toxins are a diverse family of protein toxins composed of an enzymatic active (A) subunit and a pentameric delivery (B) subunit. Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi’s typhoid toxin features two A subunits, CdtB and PltA, in complex with the B subunit PltB. Recently, it was shown that...
