Functional interactions between anthrax toxin receptors and the WNT signalling protein LRP6

Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg, Laurence Gouzi Abrami, Béatrice Kunz, Julie Deuquet Ariosa

To exert its activity, anthrax toxin must be endocytosed and its enzymatic toxic subunits delivered to the cytoplasm. It has been proposed that, in addition to the anthrax toxin receptors (ATRs), lipoprotein-receptor-related protein 6 (LRP6), known for its ...
