Structure of Clostridium perfringens Enterotoxin with a peptide derived from a modified version of ECL-2 of Claudin 2

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 21839091

Function

[CLD2_MOUSE] Plays a major role in tight junction-specific obliteration of the intercellular space, through calcium-independent cell-adhesion activity.[1] [ELTB_CLOPF] This enterotoxin is responsible for many cases of a mild type of food poisoning.
