Mimicry of a G protein mutation by pertussis toxin expression in transgenic Caenorhabditis elegans.

abstract：:Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) were raised against native and denatured alpha-hemolysin (HlyA) of Escherichia coli. Binding of the MAbs to native, denatured, and erythrocyte-complexed active wild-type hemolysin and mutant derivatives was tested. All 15 MAbs analyzed bound to native hemolysin, even when the toxin was com...
