Diphtheria toxin and its ADP-ribosyltransferase-defective homologue CRM197 possess deoxyribonuclease activity.

The cytotoxic mechanism of diphtheria toxin (DTx) is associated with its ability to inhibit protein synthesis by ADP-ribosylation of elongation factor 2. Although DTx intoxication leads to internucleosomal DNA cleavage and cell lysis, these events do not occur when protein synthesis is inhibited by...
