Bacterial Toxins

The “Bacterial Toxins” section of Toxins invites the submission of high quality manuscripts that report new investigations into all aspects of research on bacterial toxins, including but not limited to: mechanisms of toxin action; toxin transport or processing by host cells; host responses to bacterial toxins; novel properties of bacterial toxins; structure-function studies; mechanisms to detect and neutralize minute quantities of bacterial toxins; toxin evolution and classification; and clinical effects and case reports including applications of bacterial toxins as novel therapeutic compounds, and vaccine development and vaccine testing. The editors will also consider reviews that summarize current thinking or present controversial viewpoints for further discussion. Short communications that report important self-contained observations are also welcome.
