Product Application

Cholera toxin (CT) is the primary toxin produced by Vibrio cholerae. CT consists of an A subunit (CTA) and a B subunit (CTB), where five CTB molecules associate with one CTA through hydrogen bonds and salt bridges, forming a compact and stable AB5 cylindrical hexameric protein complex. CT is recognized as one of the most potent oral immunogens. Oral administration of CT not only induces an immune response against CT itself but also enhances the immune response to co-administered antigens.
