Cholera toxin binds to LewisX and fucosylated glycoproteins play a functional role in human intestinal cell intoxication
Cholera toxin (CT) enters and intoxicates host cells after binding cell surface receptors via its B subunit (CTB). We have recently shown that in addition to the previously described binding partner ganglioside GM1, CTB binds to fucosylated proteins. Using flow cytometric analysis of primary human...
