Mutational Analysis of the Enzymatic Domain of Clostridium difficile Toxin B Reveals Novel Inhibitors of the Wild-Type Toxin

Toxin B (TcdB), a major Clostridium difficile virulence factor, glucosylates and inactivates the small GTP-binding proteins Rho, Rac, and Cdc42. In the present study we provide evidence that enzymatically inactive fragments of the TcdB enzymatic domain are effective intracellular inhibitors of nativ...
