Transport and processing of staphylococcal enterotoxin A.

K K Christianson, R K Tweten and J J Iandolo

ABSTRACT

A larger-molecular-weight precursor of enterotoxin A was found in membranes of Staphylococcus aureus and was shown to be the kinetic precursor to the extracellular form of the toxin. Subcellular fractionation revealed that mature enterotoxin A was transiently associated with the cell wall before being released to the extracellular environment.
