Ion selectivity of the anthrax toxin channel and its effect on protein translocation
Anthrax toxin consists of three ∼85-kD proteins: lethal factor (LF), edema factor (EF), and protective antigen (PA). PA(63) (the 63-kD, C-terminal portion of PA) forms heptameric channels ((PA(63))(7)) in planar phospholipid bilayer membranes that enable the translocation of LF and EF across the mem...
