The N-terminus of the Clostridioides difficile transferase A component directs toxin activity and potency
ABSTRACT Clostridioides difficile infection is the leading cause of antibiotic-associated, hospital-acquired diarrhea in the USA; the pathology of which is mediated by toxins. The presence of a toxin known as the C. difficile Transferase (CDT) in some clinical isolates is linked to severe symptoms i...
