Functions of Phenylalanine Residues within the β-Barrel Stem of the Anthrax Toxin Pore
BACKGROUND: A key step of anthrax toxin action involves the formation of a protein-translocating pore within the endosomal membrane by the Protective Antigen (PA) moiety. Formation of this transmembrane pore by PA involves interaction of the seven 2β2–2β3 loops of the heptameric precursor to generat...
