Shiga Toxin acts as an N-glycosidase, removing an adenine from the 28S ribosomal rRNA of a target cell which leads to inhibition of protein elongation and ultimately cellular apoptosis.<ref name=Di>PMID: 21184769</ref> The B subunit is necessary for binding to globo series glycolipid globotriaosylceramide (Gb<sub>3</sub>), a eukaryotic membrane receptor, where it is then endocytosed and proteolytically cleaved into an active A subunit and a B subunit.<ref name=Lenz>PMID: 2170899</ref> The B subunit is not active in the depurination of of 28S rRNA, but is essential for GB<sub>3</sub> binding and therefore essential for toxicity.
