Further Information

Additional Names:
Cholera enterotoxin subunit B, Cholera enterotoxin B chain, Cholera enterotoxin gamma chain, Choleragenoid, ctxB, toxB, REF: C1001
Application Note:
This recombinant protein can be used for biological assays. For research use only.
Background:
Cholera toxin is protein complex secreted by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae. It is responsible for the massive, watery diarrhea characteristic of cholera infection. Cholera enterotoxin subunit B (CTXB) pentameric ring directs the A subunit to its target by binding to the GM1 gangliosides present on the surface of the intestinal epithelial cells. It can bind five GM1 gangliosides. It has no toxic activity by itself.
Buffer:
Lyophilized from a 0.2 um filtered solution of 50mM Tris, 200uM NaCl,pH8.0. It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 ug/ml. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in ddH2O.
