Diphtheria toxin and edema toxin are ADP ribosylating toxins Both organisms are gram-positive spore formers The most serious disease symptoms are the direct result of toxin action Both organisms cause skin and respiratory tract infections Diphtheria toxin and edema toxin are ADP ribosylating toxins Both organisms are gram-positive spore formers The most serious disease symptoms are the direct result of toxin action Both organisms cause skin and respiratory tract infections ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Microorganisms and Disease Cholera toxin is an A-B type toxin in which the B portions bind to a receptor on a host cell and the A portion enters the cell to cause cleavage of rRNA that results in disruption of ribosome function ADP ribosylation of adenylate cyclase that stops production of cAMP ADP ribosylation of a G protein that locks it into an active form that stimulates adenylate cyclase to make cAMP ADP ribosylation of guanylate cyclase that stimulates production of cGMP cleavage of rRNA that results in disruption of ribosome function ADP ribosylation of adenylate cyclase that stops production of cAMP ADP ribosylation of a G protein that locks it into an active form that stimulates adenylate cyclase to make cAMP ADP ribosylation of guanylate cyclase that stimulates production of cGMP ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
