Leírás

Általános leírás

Recombinant, Bacillus anthracis anthrax protective antigen expressed in a special strain of B. anthracis. One of three protein components of anthrax toxin produced by the pathogenic bacterium, Bacillus anthracis. Central moiety that mediates entry of lethal factor (LF) and edema factor (EF) into the target cell. PA83 binds to the cell surface via a type I membrane receptor with a von Willebrand factor A domain, known as anthrax toxin receptor. PA83 is proteolytically activated in vivo by a furin-like protease to produce a 63 kDa protein (PA63). PA63 self-associates to form a heptameric, cation-selective, voltage-gated, membrane channel that subsequently binds to LF and/or EF. Cleavage of the 20 kDa fragment from PA83 is necessary for binding of protective antigen to LF and EF.
