exotoxin

The same exotoxin may have different names, depending of the field of research.

The rash is due to an exotoxin, not the Strep.

One was the so-called exotoxin, which destroyed skin and dissolved red cells.

It is the target of diphtheria toxin and exotoxin A.

He also showed that the bacillus produces an exotoxin.

Exotoxin A (speA) is probably the best studied of these toxins.

They are an exotoxin (a virulence factor) and help to facilitate the spread of gas gangrene.

One such exotoxin is produced by C. perfringens and is responsible for the disease manifestations.

An exotoxin is a toxin secreted by bacteria.

An exotoxin can cause damage to the host by destroying cells or disrupting normal cellular metabolism.

This exotoxin is known as alpha toxin.

Also interesting is the effect of alpha-defensins on the exotoxin produced by anthrax (Bacillus anthracis).

Streptococcus pyogenes produces an exotoxin known as a superantigen.

It is caused by exotoxin released by Streptococcus pyogenes.

Its two virulence factors are the poly-D-glutamate polypeptide capsule, and the actual anthrax exotoxin.

Streptolysin, an exotoxin, is the enzyme produced by the bacteria which causes the complete lysis of red blood cells.

C. tetani also produces the exotoxin tetanolysin, a hemolysin, that causes destruction of tissues.

Pastan's lab focuses on variations of the exotoxin derived from Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Alongside such rapid proliferation is a corresponding mass-production of exotoxin that causes severe damage to local tissue in the host.

EGC helped generate the methods to electroporate suspension cells with C3 exotoxin.

The exotoxin is commonly found in C. perfringens type A strain and is known as alpha toxin.

An enterotoxin (not to be confused with endotoxin) is a protein exotoxin released by a microorganism that targets the intestines.

Streptolysin is a streptococcal hemolytic exotoxin.

Pertussis toxin is an exotoxin with six subunits (named S1 through S5-each complex contains two copies of S4).

The cholera toxin and exotoxin A of Pseudomonas aeruginosa uses a similar mechanism of action.
