Structures of distant diphtheria toxin homologs reveal functional determinants of an evolutionarily conserved toxin scaffold
Toxic proteins are responsible for the disease symptoms accompanying bacterial infections. Sugiman-Marangos et al. report crystal structures of two diphtheria toxin homologs, therefore providing structural insights into this family of toxins and the evolutionary adaptation of these toxins to human h...
