Exfoliative toxin E, a new Staphylococcus aureus virulence factor with host-specific activity

Exfoliative toxins (ETs) are secreted virulence factors produced by staphylococci. These serine proteases specifically cleave desmoglein 1 (Dsg1) in mammals and are key elements in staphylococcal skin infections.
