|
Scientific Background: | AC toxin inserts itself into the membrane of target cells and delivers its adenylate cyclase enzymatic domain to the cell interior. Its adenylate cyclase activity is then stimulated by endogenous Ca2+ and calmodulin. The resulting increase in cAMP concentration can easily reach supraphysiological levels. |
