Structural basis for the unfolding of anthrax lethal factor by protective antigen oligomers

The protein transporter, anthrax lethal toxin, is comprised of protective antigen (PA), a transmembrane translocase, and lethal factor (LF), a cytotoxic enzyme. Following assembly into holotoxin complexes, PA forms an oligomeric channel that unfolds LF and translocates it into the host cell. We repo...
