Molecular and structural characterisation of epsilon toxin and necrotic enteritis toxin B : two pore-forming toxins from Clostridium perfringens
Epsilon toxin (Etx) and necrotic enteritis toxin B (NetB) are two pore-forming toxins produced by C. perfringens. While Etx has been shown to be the key virulence factor for enterotoxemia in goats and sheep, NetB has been associated with the pathogenesis of avian necrotic enteritis (NE), a gastro-in...
