Revision10-September-2008 JSW
DescriptionCholera toxin is an oligomeric protein consisting of a single A subunit (M.W. 28,000) containing two polypeptide chains, A1 and A2 , and a B subunit (M.W. 55,000) containing five polypeptide chains. Cholera toxin is the pathogenic agent responsible for the symptoms of cholera. Cholera toxin is also a potent activator of adenylate cyclase that binds the ADP-ribosylation factor and modulates its activity. The A subunit catalyzes the ADP-ribosylation of GS that leads to the persistent activation of adenylate cyclase. The consequent increase in intracellular cAMP levels stimulates Cl- secretion and leads to severe dehydration. The B subunit binds specifically to GM1 ganglioside receptors, which are expressed ubiquitously in mammalian cells, and assists in the transport of the A subunit through the membrane. When used alone, the B subunit will block the action of toxin on intact cells. Purified B subunit is produced by a modification of the methods published by Lai, C.Y., et al.
