ion flow and resulting in a massive loss of host cell water, which is seen as diarrhea.
Other A subunits have different activities, Shiga-toxin A subunit cleaves a host cell
rRNA molecule preventing protein synthesis (Fig. 9.5).

Fig. 9.5 AB toxins are
compound toxins where
the B subunit binds to the
cellular receptor, and the A
subunit has the enzyme
activity. Most A subunits
are ADP- rybosylases, they
remove the ADP-ribosyl
group from NAD and
attach it covalently to a
host cell protein changing
signaling or affecting
protein synthesis
