  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

 Toxins produced by Bordetella pertussis, the causative agent of “whooping cough”, contribute to the virulent and symptoms of this disease. One of these toxins, termed pertussis toxin, is used to study mechanisms of cellular signaling. Pertussis toxin catalyzes the transfer of ADP-ribose from NAD to specific guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G proteins), thereby disrupting their functions and producing characteristics of the disease.

 The pertussis toxin protein is a hexamer composed of five dissimilar subunits. The toxin molecule is dissociated into biggest subunit and the residual pentamer as a result of the allosteric action of ATP. The biggest subunit is referred to as an A (active) protomer, whereas the pentamer acts as a B (binding) oligomer. The A protomer is incapable of entering mammalian cells unless it forms the hexameric structure by association with the B oligomer which binds directly to particular sites on the cell surface.
