Bacterial AB5 toxins inhibit the growth of gut bacteria by targeting ganglioside-like glycoconjugates
Bacterial AB5 toxins, such as cholera toxin, bind to oligosaccharides on the host cell surface and play key roles in the pathogenesis of diarrheal disease. Here, Patry et al. show that these toxins bind also to bacterial oligosaccharides and inhibit the growth of Campylobacter jejuni and gut commens...

| Sumario: | Bacterial AB5 toxins, such as cholera toxin, bind to oligosaccharides on the host cell surface and play key roles in the pathogenesis of diarrheal disease. Here, Patry et al. show that these toxins bind also to bacterial oligosaccharides and inhibit the growth of Campylobacter jejuni and gut commensal bacteria. |
