  • Title: Possible receptor for exfoliative toxins produced by Staphylococcus hyicus and Staphylococcus aureus.
    Author: Tanabe T, Sato H, Ueda K, Chihara H, Watanabe T, Nakano K, Saito H, Maehara N.
    Journal: Infect Immun; 1995 Apr; 63(4):1591-4. PubMed ID: 7890427.
    Abstract:
    Exfoliative toxin produced by Staphylococcus hyicus bound to the GM4-like glycolipid extracted from the skin of 1-day-old chickens but did not bind to glycolipid from adult chickens or suckling mice. Exfoliative toxin produced by Staphylococcus aureus bound to the GM4-like glycolipid extracted from the skin of suckling mice but not to glycolipid from 1-day-old or adult chickens. S. hyicus and S. aureus exfoliative toxins lost their toxicity by preincubation with GM4-like glycolipid from 1-day-old chickens and suckling mice, respectively.
