A conserved motif in transmembrane helix 1 of diphtheria toxin mediates catalytic domain delivery to the cytosol.

abstract：:We discuss the relationship among certain generalizations of results of Hida, Ribet, and Wiles on congruences between modular forms. Hida's result accounts for congruences in terms of the value of an L-function, and Ribet's result is related to the behavior of the period that appears there. Wiles' theory leads to a cl...
