Sialoglycan-binding patterns of bacterial AB(5) toxin B subunits correlate with host range and toxicity, indicating evolution independent of A subunits

Many pathogenic bacteria secrete AB(5) toxins that can be virulence factors. Cytotoxic A subunits are delivered to the cytosol following B subunit binding to specific host cell surface glycans. Some B subunits are not associated with A subunits, for example, YpeB of Yersinia pestis, the etiologic ag...
