TcdB of Clostridioides difficile Mediates RAS-Dependent Necrosis in Epithelial Cells
A Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) is the most common nosocomial infection world-wide. The main virulence factors of pathogenic C. difficile are TcdA and TcdB, which inhibit small Rho-GTPases. The inhibition of small Rho-GTPases leads to the so-called cytopathic effect, a reor-ganization of...
