Mechanism of action of cholera toxin
Cholera toxin binds to the outside of cells and one of its sub-units enters to activate adenylate cyclase. In the current work the nature of this action across the membrane was related to the hydrophobicities of cholera toxin and its subunits. Charge-shift electrophoresis showed that the proteins ha...
