Shigella toxin inhibition of binding and translation of polyuridylic acid by Escherichia coli ribosomes

J G Olenick et al. J Bacteriol. 1980 Mar.

Abstract

Shigella toxin inhibits polyuridylic acid-directed polymerization of phenylalanine in ribosome-enzyme systems obtained from Escherichia coli or from Shigella dysenteriae. The inhibition is the result of toxin acting on ribosomes to prevent polyuridylic acid attachment.
