Diphtheria Toxin Antigen (None)
- Target
- None
- Molecular classification
- Exotoxin, Enzyme
01
Overview
Diphtheria toxin antigen refers to the protein exotoxin produced by *Corynebacterium diphtheriae*. The toxin is responsible for the symptoms and pathology of diphtheria, a serious infectious disease characterized by sore throat, fever, and necrosis of respiratory tissue. It inhibits protein synthesis by ADP-ribosylating elongation factor 2 (EF2).
